Description


The nor ‘wester, a pacific northwest name. 
Worn by sailors for centuries around the world because the unique brim
shape of the back extends down over your collar, preventing water from
running down your neck.
The front visor can be folded up to form a kind of gutter for rain to run down the sides and back of the hat. All of these design elements eliminate the need
for a hood, which can impair peripheral vision.
The wool lined ear flap also covers the back of the neck and a cotton
drawstring cord with a toggle cinches up under your chin.

Please Note: because this hat is made of natural fibers, it is not
waterproof but is water resistant. You can make it more water resistant by
re-waxing it over time as needed with wear and applying wax to the seams.

Shell is 100% waxed cotton lining

Lining 100% wool

Very effective for rowing

I bought this on a whim but it turned out to be the perfect winter rowing accoutrement. The brim keeps the wind off your neck without limiting peripheral vision and the wool lining is quite warm. I am looking forward to next November when I can use it again on the Severn River. Note that if you plan to fold up the earflaps consider going one size up since the wool-lined flaps are quite bulky.,
