Please Note: Due to the handmade nature of Pith Helmets, be advised there might be minor imperfections in the construction of the hat. These imperfections do not hinder the look or wear of the helmet.
Made in Vietnam
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 handmade in Vietnam using the techniques inherited by the former French occupiers.
Please Note: Pith helmets can be immersed in water, whereby the wearer stays cool during use on hot summer days. When wet the hat may become a bit softer, but then dries to its original state. Please submerge the outside of the helmet carefully, without allowing water to spill into the interior of the helmet.

I have worn my first one ragged. It has accompanied me to 3 different countries, and has seen all kinds of wear and abuse, and still works great! I got a second one to keep as my tidy pith helmet for times when I don't want to appear as rough and tumble. Super functional, super comfortable, and truly a great hat.
High quality, authentic pith hat.
This pith helmet is a great alternative to a bicycle helmet, as it is made with natural materials. It already saved my cranium from a fall while biking, making a soft landing. My only problem is having to carefully adjust the inner support to avoid getting feedback from my hearing aids. It is easy to clean with a soft brush. I hope to be a trend setter.
The hat is great! Only complaints are the material it’s made of can be a bit soft, leaving imprints if it’s been hit or scuffed. There was also lots of loose threads and what look like unfinished stitches on the inside of the hat. Leaves a bit to be desired but overall I love the look and it’s really great for hiking, didn’t leave my head all sweaty like other hats do.
