DPC Billings Oil Cloth Safari Hat by Dorfman Pacific

Billings Oil Cloth Safari Hat by Dorfman Pacific. Since 1921 Dorfman Pacific has prided itself in being one of the largest full-line head wear companies in the world. Made with genuine oil cloth. Oil cloth was originally created by sailors who soaked canvas sail cloth in to make water repellent fabric for foul weather gear. The idea quickly spread to those who needed hats and coats tough enough to withstand the elements. Today oil cloth combines cotton fabric with a blend of waxes and oils to provide the ultimate protection from rain, wind and dust. Genuine Oil Cloth is the only choice for rugged looks, wearability and all weather protection.

Highly water repellent, this big brim safari hat will keep you looking rugged, as you remain protected from water, dust, and wind. The comfortable sweatband will keep your head from getting too hot as you work hard. A self-leather chin cord keeps the hat on through bad weather, and allows a comfortable fit. Featuring a 3.25" brim, it is available in Brown in sizes Small (size 6 3/4 - 6 7/8, 21 1/8 - 21.5 inches), Medium (size 7 - 7 1/8, 21 7/8 - 22.25 inches), Large (size 7 1/4 - 7 3/8, 22 5/8 - 23 inches), and X-Large (size 7 1/2 - 7 5/8, 23.5 - 23 7/8 inches).
