Indian Pith Helmet

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 Indian style pith helmet, a.k.a. the Bombay Bowler, is the most popular pith helmet style in North America. These hats are made from the pith, of trees from northern Vietnam using techniques developed 100 years ago by the French during their occupation. The material can sustain heavy sunlight as well as rain. The helmet is functional in both sunny and rainy weather.

 

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.

 

Also available in the color White.
