Village Hat Shop Indian Pith Helmet - Big Head Version

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. 

This Indian style pith helmet, a.k.a. the Bombay Bowler, is the most popular pith helmet style in North America. These hats are made from the cork, or pith, of trees from northern Vietnam using techniques developed 100 years ago by the French during their occupation.

By popular demand, we have introduced this Indian style pith helmet in a size range for people with bigger heads. Like our regular helmets, the size is adjustable by way of a velcro ending to the cotton sweatband. The helmet is functional in both sunny and rainy weather.

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.
