Named after \u003cstrong data-start=\"1077\" data-end=\"1088\"\u003eKaratta\u003c\/strong\u003e, a pastoral region in the island’s southwest, this design also honours the \u003cstrong data-start=\"1164\" data-end=\"1180\"\u003eS.S. Karatta\u003c\/strong\u003e — a steamship that, over a century ago, connected Kangaroo Island to the mainland. Carrying people, wool, and essential goods between Kingscote and Port Adelaide, it served as a vital trade link for the early communities and helped shape the island’s economic and cultural identity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1465\" data-end=\"2004\"\u003eCrafted by our resident \u003cstrong data-start=\"1489\" data-end=\"1499\"\u003ehatter\u003c\/strong\u003e, the Karatta Fedora is made to order and individually shaped for each customer. From the knitting and felting of the wool to the final hand-blocking process, each step reflects slow fashion, patience, and precision. The wool’s soft yet structured feel is made possible by the use of \u003cstrong data-start=\"1783\" data-end=\"1808\"\u003eSuperfine Merino Wool\u003c\/strong\u003e, offering a perfect balance of natural breathability and lasting comfort. A \u003cstrong data-start=\"1885\" data-end=\"1922\"\u003egenuine Kangaroo leather hat band\u003c\/strong\u003e completes the design, bringing texture and elegance to a truly island-made piece.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eDesigned with a \u003cstrong data-start=\"1114\" data-end=\"1176\"\u003esleeker crown and a narrower brim than the Flinders Fedora\u003c\/strong\u003e, the Karatta offers a more refined, streamlined silhouette while maintaining the same depth of craftsmanship and character.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2006\" data-end=\"2308\"\u003eRooted in the legacy of \u003cstrong data-start=\"2030\" data-end=\"2097\"\u003efarming families whose connection to the land spans generations\u003c\/strong\u003e, and inspired by the long history of trade and craftsmanship on Kangaroo Island, the Karatta Fedora carries with it a quiet sense of heritage — one shaped by work, weather, and the stories passed along the way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2310\" data-end=\"2578\"\u003eThe Karatta Fedora is more than a statement piece. It is a tribute to the island’s rich working heritage, the rhythm of its trade past, and the creativity of those who make with intention. When you wear it, you carry with you a story shaped by land, history, and hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Kangaroo Island Wool Company","offers":[{"title":"Dune","offer_id":47111601815730,"sku":null,"price":490.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black","offer_id":47111601848498,"sku":null,"price":490.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Natural White","offer_id":47111601881266,"sku":null,"price":490.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Navy","offer_id":47111601914034,"sku":null,"price":490.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Eucalyptus Pink","offer_id":47111601946802,"sku":null,"price":490.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Dusty Blue","offer_id":47111601979570,"sku":null,"price":490.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Olive","offer_id":47111602012338,"sku":null,"price":490.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Rust","offer_id":47111602045106,"sku":null,"price":490.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Bark","offer_id":47111602077874,"sku":null,"price":490.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Charcoal","offer_id":47111602110642,"sku":null,"price":490.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Lichen","offer_id":47429485363378,"sku":null,"price":490.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Storm Blue","offer_id":47429485396146,"sku":null,"price":490.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Wattle Seed","offer_id":47430336708786,"sku":null,"price":490.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0602\/6487\/4162\/files\/Karatta_Fedora_Dune_Kangaroo_Island_Wool.jpg?v=1771996380","url":"https:\/\/kangarooislandwool.com\/products\/karatta-fedora","provider":"Kangaroo Island Wool","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
