While in nothern Vietnam a few years ago arranging for the manufacturing of our pith helmets, we decided one day to visit a remote rural area where straw hats are made. From that one-day experience, we are now importing the Asian Conical Hat, The Hanoi Pith Helmet, The Shanghai Shader, The Kowloon Big Brim, and this hat, the Foxxy C-Shader. These are all traditional straw hats worn by the people of Vietnam primarily for protection from outdoor elements. This hat with its big brim - the diameter is almost 19 inches, its interior nest for a steady fit on the head, and draw string is very suitable sun shade (perfect for gardening for example). Imagine our surprise when this style turned up on the head of Beyance Knowles in the Austin Powers's movie "Goldmember"! Her character, Foxxy Cleopatra is the utmost in hipness and fashion-forwardness. And here you have Foxxy wearing a traditional Vietnamese hat worn by farmers in the fields. Well, that's the modern world - you never know where the next fashion statement will be coming from. Color: Natural. Size: One-size-fits-most with a chin cord to help. [If you are inclined to return this hat if the fit is not precisely to your liking, we suggest not buying it in the first place as the round-trip shipping costs may be as much as the price of the hat.]
The price per hat is $7.50. The pre-pack size is 6 hats. Ordering one (1) means that you are purchasing one pre-pack of 6 hats for $45 ($7.50 x 6 = $45). [Important Note: In order to fit 6 of these hats into a single box we must ship with the interior nesting piece unattached from the hat. Four strings are in place in the interior of the hat. One needs simply to place the head nest at the hat's interior and tie knots with these four strings.]
