The pith helmet is also known as the safari helmet, sun helmet, or salacot, the original pith helmet is a lightweight cloth covered helmet made of sholapith (spongy material). This pith helmet was worn primarily by European travelers and explorers, in the varying climates found in Africa, southeast asia and tropical countries.
Recently the pith helmet took the shape of a more functional helmet. The helmet is nowadays made out of various materials including toyo straw. Miller Hats carries the Straw pith helmet perfect for gardening, hiking, safari and other outdoor activities.
The hat is made out of twisted toyo straw, it comes with a 2 ½” brim and it has a one size fits most velcro strap. Adjustable velcro strap keeps the helmet away from direct contact with your head like the pith helmets in the tropical British Empire.
The straw material helps keep the head relaxed and cool. They are widely used by the Philippine revolutionary military and are still used by the US postal Service. This style is often used by the U. S. Postal Service carriers and for good reason it's a great sun blocker with just the right ventilation.
