Barmah Hat Company is on the front lines of Australian hatmakers. Australia is known for their cutting edge hat designs. The rugged countryside and weather dictate the necessity for durable functional headwear. The canvas design of the Drover is an excellent example of a hat that protects from rain, wind and sun. The nylon mesh crown allows for ventilation on the hottest of days. The crown is 4″ high and trimmed with a braided suede hat band. The brim width is 2 3/4″. A nylon chin cord can be used to keep the hat on during rough weather, or to keep the hat compact when packed. To fold the hat for packing, simply indent or crease the crown and fold up the sides of the brim creating a taco-like shape. To pack even further, fold the taco in half. You can then use the chin cord to hold the folded hat in place. Available colors: Beige, Brown and Khaki. Available sizes: Small, Medium, Large, and Extra-Large.

These hats go by various names on this side of the Pacific Ocean. Some call them Coolie Hats (but we think this is pejorative), others call them Chinese Fisherman Hats (but we think this is too narrow and limiting). The fact is that this very functional hat is worn by both men and women in many different Asian countries. This particular example comes from Vietnam. When we were there buying our pith helmets (we are also PITHHELMETS.COM), we observed this light and simple hat being worn for both sun and rain protection. This simply is very good headgear. Garden shops should carry these. At times, this style even shows up on the fashion runways (true!). Color: Natural as pictured. Size: One-size with scarf to stabalize on the head.
