It’s spring in Maine, and rainy, so I decided to go shopping for a new jacket to wear in the wet.

I have a full-length, Australian Drover Coat that reaches to my ankles, but I wanted something that was more convenient when it wasn’t a total downpour. So I went a-searching and lo and behold, I found the company, the coat, and a hat to boot.

The company is—yes, in Australia—and the owner, Sammy Menche, is a great guy who’s been selling Australian clothing for decades.

The company is “Everything Australia,” and they sell the real deal.

After getting their help with sizes, I purchased the Genuine Australian Bushwear Short Coat and a Thomas Cook Wide-Brim Oilskin Hat, both in brown. 

The quality of the coat and hat are FANTASTIC. Great design and way cool.

The items were shipped and arrived quickly. So, today, I went out and stood in front of our newly blooming lilac bushes, and my dear wife took a photo. Aren’t the lilacs beautiful?

I highly and heartily recommend Everything Australia!
