Some tips on the canoeist

The French canoeist is made of straw in a traditional way, which gives it a very rigid set. Moreover, it is a hat that does not sink like a classic hat because its cap is shallow even if it sinks better than a Olney canoeist who often just sits on top of his head. Finally, this canoeist model does not have an interior comfort band. The head reducer is therefore essential to make it more comfortable and securely attached to the head (not supplied with the canoe).
