A PLETHORA OF PITHERS
Some years ago, an Omni Magazine column declared the pith helmet style to be more effective at protecting the face, neck and shoulders from the sun's harmful rays than any other form of headgear. This came as no surprise to the Sons of the Beach - we've been sandcastling under the hot South Padre sun in them for years.
These hats are a light-weight mesh - they don't do well in the rain and tend to get soft in high humidity - but can be stiffened up again when sprayed with a clear acryllic sealant - available in most any hardware store. They are fully adjustable - we've only met one or two adult heads they wouldn't fit. We currently have tan (natural) only in stock, but can airbrush to pretty much any color you like for a few bucks extra.
Our pithers sell for $29 (free shipping) unadorned -- customized pithers start at $60 and up.
