French Pith Helmet - White
Size Guide
This French style pith helmet in white 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 2 3/4 inches, 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.

VERY pleasant experience. As the hat never touches the top of your head, there is ample space around and above the crown, and air can circulate freely. In fact, there are some silly whistling noises when wind meets ventilation holes :) You can even skip wearing your sunglasses. The brim is wide enough that you are permanently walking in your own private shade.
After a while, you forget you are wearing it, and it's only the curious looks from people walking past you that remind you of the fact.
I always wanted one since I was an easily-impressionable boy (some might argue I have not changed all that much), and now that I got round to looking pith helmets up on the internets, I snapped mine up as soon as I set my eyes on this page :)
