About this CompanyAt Real Deal Brazil, We're all about the tarp
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.

Hands down has become my favorite hat ever. I have been super picky for as long as I can remember, and have bought more hats and given them away than I like to admit. This hat came in and soon as I put it on I was sold. Its comfortable, feels rugged enough to take a beating, not too showy or flamboyant but at the same time doesn't make you look like a goober or cowboy/hipster wannabe. This hat was made for no-nonsense functionality and that's exactly why I love it.

After 10 years my head got too big for my XL hat so my wife will try to let it out to fit. Still, a great hat.

I have had this hat for two years. Buying two more just in case I lose mine.

My dad and I have had our hats for the better part, if not longer than 10 years now, probably longer because I had it before I joined the military. We both still love our hats and give them a good beating every now and again just to make sure. I didn't even know the company had a website or I'd have done this review sooner! I think I look goofy in a hat, but does that stop me from rocking this bad boy? Nope! Not one bit. It's such a unique hat and style from the canvas you can't help but love it! Now that I know they have more products I have to get my hands on some because they will clearly last forever. If I couldn't damage this hat beyond belief by now then it's gonna last forever. It's even got some interesting character from its life with me so far. From a bend in the brim from sitting against the wall while I tackled basic training to red clay marks from some fun stuff I did, and more. This thing is amazing!

JD, thank you so much for the honest review! We're so glad that you and your dad have enjoyed our hats for more than 10 years, it sounds like your hats have some amazing character from all the adventures!

Love the hat and the entire concept!
Eric W - 08/17/2019
Love this hat! Wide brim gives good sun protection. Durable, looks good in a well-worn, has-a-story way. Lots of character. And you don’t have to worry about getting it dirty or sweat-stained. It’s already been through a lot worse than my head!

Works fine. No problems.

Best hat ever. Wore it flyfishing in Colorado and it handled the rain and hail like no other hat plus it looks super cool, too.

Best hat with the coolest story and it looks amazing on anybody. My son, my dad and I all have one and we all love it.
Christopher D - 08/16/2019
I have owned an original Real Deal tarp hat for years and it has done me well on trips across the globe. It is starting to wear out so I ordered a replacement and what a disappointment..The new hat has several FAKE patches sewn on for no reason that are covering no damage. The hat looks cheesy instead of cool as it has way too many patches. I will unstitch the fake patches (7of them) but won't be buying from Real Deal again.

Easy peasy!
Why Trust Verified Reviews?
Verified Reviews are real, authentic reviews collected from actual paying customers, using Shopper Approved's Verified Review Platform. When reviews are Verified by Shopper Approved, you know that you can trust them to make better buying decisions.
Unverified Reviews on the other hand, are reviews collected by Open Review platforms that allow anyone to leave a review, without any validation or proof of purchase. Unfortunately, most reviews you read online are Unverified Reviews, and can't be trusted.
As a consumer, here's how you can tell the difference:
Verified Reviews from Verified Review Platforms like Shopper Approved, have much higher review counts and higher overall Star ratings, because they attempt to collect reviews from every single paying customer.
Unverified Reviews from Open Review Platforms, tend to have much lower review counts and more negative Star ratings, because people with bad experiences are primarily those who leave reviews. This often creates a misleading, inaccurate portrayal of a companies true reputation.
So, when searching for Verified Reviews, look for the name you know you can trust. Shopper Approved.
