There are many variations of this iconic hat because it was made by many people and not to any set pattern. Ours is double thickness all around to keep the African sun off your head. It DOES NOT have an orange panel inside the crown. Order your normal size.
How does the hat fit?
The hat is generally described as fitting well, with some finding their usual size to be perfect. However, some hats fit a bit small initially. It is possible to stretch the hat for a better fit by soaking it in water and shaping it. Some hats become a bit tight after washing.
What is the quality and construction of the hat like?
The hat is of outstanding quality and finish, with solid construction and strong, medium-weight material. It is double thickness all around. The brim stitching is well done.
Is the hat stiff when new?
The hat is stiff when new and can look too new to be worn immediately. It softens over time and with washing. Washing and drying can help give it a more worn-in look.
How wide is the brim?
The hat has a nice wide brim, which extends about three inches on both sides. Some hats have a big flat brim that resembles a US "Boonie" pattern. The brim can be trimmed to shorten it and taper its shape.
How does the hat perform in wet conditions?
The material pulls taut when wet and does not let much water in. It has kept its colour despite being washed in a machine and worn in the rain.
Does the hat have a chin strap?
The hat does not have a chin strap. This is a departure from usual boonie hats.
