## Description

This French style pith helmet in khaki is the original design from Vietnam. A hundred years ago, the French discovered the advantages of the material used to make these hats. The pith is from trees in northern Vietnam and has properties that make it both a good sun and rain shield. These helmets are made in Vietnam using the techniques inherited by the former French occupiers. This style has the biggest brim, about 7cm wide, and is thus arguably the most functional.Due to the handmade nature of the Pith Helmets, please be advised that there may be some minor imperfections in the construction of the hat. These imperfections should not hinder the look or the wear of the helmet. Hat Sizing Info: Small/Medium adjustable cotton sweatband fits heads from 55 cm to 57 cm. Large/X-Large adjustable cotton sweatband fits heads from 58 cm to 61 cm.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Love it!  Great value and great hat
*by K***N on 18 January 2014*

The pith helmet was quickly shipped and was really well packed. It's very lightweight but seems sturdy. It looks great on, very flattering! (I'm a woman and was afraid it would look stupid, but it looks conservative and really good.) Nice brim size and wider at the back to protect your neck. The velcro adjustable inside headband makes it fit great. I can bend over without it falling off, but doesn't feel at all tight. It has three ventilation grommets on each side, plus ventilation through the top button. The strap across the brim is decorative only and doesn't undo. The fabric is a nice mid-toned khaki buff. Now for quality and value. The construction isn't perfect. There are unfinished edges in the lining, for instance, and a slight imperfection in the under structure (the pith). There are four straps inside that form a sort-of interior crown to make sure there is air between the real crown and your head. Those straps are joined with a little piece of what looks like bakery string. (I'll be replacing that...maybe with a bit of leather thong) But this cost less than 20 quid, and the quality is more than adequate for the price! I bought this for a camel trek in the sahara, but I think it will go on all sunny destination vacations from now on! I'll try to remember to come back and let everyone know how it performs in the "field". So far I'm loving this!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Helmet
*by P***D on 6 August 2021*

Excellent helmet at a good price and promptly delivered. You certainly get noticed !!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good fit and comfortable
*by B***N on 14 June 2015*

Good fit and comfortable, survived a moderate rainfall with no issues. Build quality is good. Only draw back is the adjustment strap only allows you to adjust the fit by about 10-15mm
