British Foreign Service Zulu War Pith Helmet

Please Note: Due to the handmade nature of Pith Helmets, be advised there might be minor imperfections in the construction of the hat. These imperfections do not hinder the look or wear of the helmet.    Made in Vietnam   This pith helmet is designed to be an historically accurate replica of that worn by the 24th RoF in the Anglo-Zulu War of 1879. It is a real pith helmet, handmade one hat at a time. Thanks to the reenactor groups who have helped with this design. These "Living History Units" have added that the Pith Helmet is also known as the U.S. M1881 Summer Helmet. Please Note: Pith helmets can be immersed in water, whereby the wearer stays cool during use on hot summer days. Please submerge the outside of the helmet carefully, without allowing water to spill into the interior of the helmet.   Approx. 5 3/4" Crown 2 3/4" Front Brim 3" Back Brim 1 3/4" Side Brims   Made of: 100% Genuine Pith   Handmade Cotton Twill Exterior Composite Leather Decorative Strap Size Adjustable Inner Harness Cotton Poplin Lining Lightweight Dunk in Water to Keep Cool   Sizes: S/M fits up to size 7 1/8 (M); L/XL fits up to size 7 5/8 (XL); adjusts via a hook and loop ending to the interior sweatband. *Size L/XL was previously sold as the "Big Head" version of this style prior to consolidation.   For Bulk/Wholesale purchase of this hat, CLICK HERE or call 1-888-847-4287.
