A few years back, Mr. P., as we affectionately call the founder of our little Greenville, N.C., company, was traveling along the coast of his beloved Brazil when he spied something intriguing in one of the local markets there: Wide-brimmed hats handcrafted out of wonderfully weathered old cotton canvas, with heavy stitching, shifts in color, fraying, stains, rips, punctures, patches and even occasional ink marks. Mr. P. immediately began inquiring about the unusual hats, learning that their material was actually old canvas tarps discarded by Brazilian trucking companies after lengthy use as protection for freight. A romantic in the broadest sense of the word, Mr. P. was instantly as hooked by the story as he had been by the hats themselves.

Previously owned a RDB hat and enjoyed it. Purchased through a regional truck stop and it had been mishandled. While it added character I was not totally pleased. I lost the hat a few years ago and not found another style that I like has much. Hopefully my new hat will be everything the old one was but maybe even better since it is bypassing a retail location.

I was shopping around for this type of hat and got nowhere. Until I found this site. I was getting excited and I cannot wait to see the Tarp Hat arrive.

I saw one of your hats that a customer of mine had and knew that I had to have one for myself. It's a great hat, looks so cool and I love the story of how they are made.
Brisa Ventilated Hat - Medium
Great hat for the beach, the Hat Haich Wind Strap is a must have accessory.
Brisa Ventilated Hat
I bought matching Brisa Ventilated Hats for my wife and I to wear on a trip to Florida. We love them! We wore them all day long, the Brisa Ventilated Hats kept the sun off our faces and the mesh sides kept our heads cool. I added a Hat Hitch Wind Strap to both hats by putting metal eyelets (grommets) on the brim close to where the brim meets the hat band - worked great!

Always wanted one but was afraid I wouldn't like the way I look in one.
