Safari Hat Styles: Pith, Bush and Crushable

Three constructions share the safari name. The pith helmet is the historic form - rigid, tall and shaded all round - now mostly a costume and collector's piece. The bush hat is the working form: cotton canvas or leather with a medium-wide brim, ventilation eyelets and a chin cord, the style Australian makers such as those at Hats Downunder build for real sun. The crushable safari hat, Raffiahats.com's specialty in raffia, trades structure for packability and springs back after the flight. Choose by trip: vehicle safaris and trekking want the cord and the sturdier brim; resort and sightseeing travel is well served by the crushable.

Shade, Color and Field Care

Light khaki and stone colors reflect heat and hide dust, which is why the style settled on them. A darker underside to the brim cuts glare bounced off ground and water. Measure for a secure fit - a safari hat meets wind on open vehicles - and use the chin cord rather than leaving it decorative. Canvas safari hats brush clean and tolerate a gentle hand wash; raffia wants to stay dry; leather wants conditioner after a season of sun. Back home, store the hat on its crown so the brim keeps the flat, even line that does the shading.
