Developed by the US Army in 1934, the denim hat was adopted with the assumption that it would be worn with a denim jacket and trousers setup. The wide brim, which serves as a shade, is a donut-shaped hollowed-out fabric that hangs over a luxurious specification. The innumerable stitches that run around the outer circumference are done in a time-consuming "single stroke". Blue denim is rarely seen in the vintage market and its existence is known, but brown denim is produced before blue denim, so there are very few existing ones. This special fabric, which uses brown natural indigo for the warp and unbleached and black heather threads for the weft, was intended to make dirt such as dust less noticeable. Stitch work of navy is effective against brown denim. 7 1/4 (M) approx.58cm 7 1/2 (L) approx. 60cm 100% Cotton Made in Japan
