British Pith Helmet - Khaki

Dr Livingston, I presume?
This pith helmet style (also known as UK Pith Helmet) is associated with British colonial and foreign service history. It is made from trees grown in the northern part of Vietnam. The material can sustain heavy sunlight as well as rain. When wet the hat may become a bit softer, but then dries to its original state. The Vietnamese learned the art of pith helmet manufacturing a hundred years ago from the French during their occupation.
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.

We are sorry to hear the hat was too big. Please note we do provide measurements in centimetres on the page of the item under "Hat Sizing Info". It is adjustable with hook-and-loop ending on the leather sweatband and it fits heads from 55 cm to 57 cm.
Best regards,

The only hat to be seen in at the army v Navy match, or any other England sporting occasion.

It will also fit much larger heads than described - I am a 61, you just have to be creative with the velcro adjustment on the inside!

All the helemts I had seen advertised were of the plastic reproduction type and were not only useless, but also did not fit.
This helmet is very light, quite compact, and if you fishtail the strap, it will fit a size 59 1/2 head comfortably. It doesn't easily come off, and it is a stylish way to stay cool in the summer.
If I have to criticise anything, it has taken a long time for the chemical smell to diminish-but this is normal for pith, I believe.
It came promptly, the packaging was excellent, and I would highly recommend it.
