In 2007 I took an overland trip though Namibia with my parents and two sets of friends. Our first port of call was the Augrabies National Park on the South African side of the South Africa/Namibia border. At the gift shop there I bought this hat (along with a warthog fluff toy, which I also still own).
It's a Rogue handcrafted leather bush hat, and it's wonderful. Supremely comfortable, it generally goes where I go whenever there's the chance of sunny weather - which here in Seattle means the months of June through September. I hope to continue to wear this hat for many a year to come.
Also it makes me look like Indiana Jones.
