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. 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. Please submerge the outside of the helmet carefully without allowing water to spill into the interior of the helmet.
