The Rocks Hatters, purveyors of gen-yoo-wine leather goods, including, but not limited to, hats and coats. Oh, and belts, there are also belts. Yes — belts! They also stock something called a kangaroo scrotum, just in case your own scrotum isn’t cutting the mustard anymore. Expensive? Sure, but. .. well, there is no but. Sorry, I didn’t plan out how to end that sentence before I began it.

It took a while to figure out whether this hatter was in fact a genuine chapelier or just another of the Rocks’ tourist traps. A friend and I ventured in to The Rocks Hatters in attempts to find out what the going price was for a quality hat. What we found was the going rate for exuberantly priced tourist garb. Although they did have a pretty good range of Akubras, including the humourously Australiana termed Stockman, The Boss, Snowy River and the Coober Pedy. Whilst there were some decent hats in the store, you can’t help but discredit the quality of the hats by the presence of Kangaroo Scrotum key chains and crocodile leather belts. Plus, the fact that they ask if you’re a tourist upon entry makes you question the validity of their products.
