British-style Colonial Helmet
This Victorian-style pith helmet is a faithful reproduction of the helmet worn by British colonists. It is characterized by its pointed shape, the sun protection it provides, and its resistance to bad weather. The British colonial helmet is made from trees that grow in northern Vietnam. The manufacturing process of this helmet was initially passed on to French colonists by the Vietnamese about a hundred years ago, during the country's occupation.
"Dr Livingston, I presume?" This khaki pith helmet model (also known as "British Colonial Helmet") is widely associated with the history of British foreign affairs and colonies. This men's headwear is made from trees grown in northern Vietnam. The material of this helmet is particularly resistant to sun and bad weather; this type of hat may slightly soften with humidity but will regain its initial shape when drying. The Vietnamese learned the manufacturing process of colonial helmets about a hundred years ago, during French colonization.
A ventilation chimney provides coolness to the head.
