Multi-Purpose Sun Hats
The main purpose of multi-purpose sun hats are to
shade the wearer from the sun. This lightweight, cool, favorite is popular
in the spring and summer.
The sun hat
swept with all its glory through the 1890s1920s. The boater, so called
because it originally topped off the striped blazer and flannel trouser
outfit worn by young men while rowing, developed into the universal style
for both men and women. American men wore the boater with a modest brim,
slightly tilted on the head in a cocky mode, embellished only with a wide,
striped grosgrain or silk hatband.
There is a wide choice of styles available from many manufacturers. The most famous are the
Pork Pie and Boater. Call us for other designs and options.
