This French style pith helmet 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 technigues inherited by the former French occupiers. This style has the biggest brim, about 2 3/4 inches, and is thus arguably the most functional. Color: White, as pictured. Size: Adjustable by way of a Velcro-like ending to the interior cotton sweatband.
