Aku Bra
The trade name "Akubra" came into use on the 7th of August, 1912.
The increasing popularity resulted in the move to larger premises in Bourke Street, Waterloo and expanded production, especially of Slouch hats during World War I, forging an association with the armed forces that continues to this day. Soon after all hats were branded Akubra.
