Fulani Straw/Leather Hat

A Fulani Hat is a traditional conical hat crafted from plant fibers, commonly worn by the Wodaabe, a subgroup of the nomadic Fulani people in West Africa. The hat features leather covering on the brim and crown, and may include decorative leather adornments in the center. It often has a leather-covered knob at the crown and a chinstrap ending in a tassel at the base. This hat is typically worn over a turban.
