Australian Clothing

Australian Clothing posts cover both the surf and outback brands and the more mainstream side. Articles look at Akubra hats from Kempsey, Drizabone oilskin coats, RM Williams boots and elastic-sided Adelaide-made footwear, Country Road as a long-running mid-market label, Quiksilver, Rip Curl and Billabong from the surf coast, plus newer streetwear like Ksubi. There are also notes on Aboriginal-owned labels that are gaining shelf space at major retailers, on the practical question of sun protective clothing rated UPF 50+ and on how Australian sizing differs from the United Kingdom and United States.
