## Overview

The Real Deal Brazil Original Recycled Tarp Hat is a handcrafted, XXL-sized cowboy hat made from 100% recycled canvas tarps once used on Brazilian cargo trucks. Each hat features unique patchwork and weathered textures, offering a lightweight, crushable design that fits larger heads comfortably. Perfect for eco-conscious professionals seeking a distinctive, conversation-starting accessory with authentic Brazilian roots.

## Description

The Real Deal's hats and bags are handcrafted in a remote town in equatorial Brazil from recycled canvas tarps that once stretched across the beds of cross-country cargo trucks hauling open freight, from the steamy desertcart out to the bustling coast. Recycling, in fact, informs nearly every aspect of production, from the salvaged tarp scraps used as patches right down to the highly shapeable hat brim the heavy wire inside was pulled from trash-bound old truck tires.These hats just aren't like other hats. They're rugged, and a bit ragged. The reclaimed truck tarps from which they're sewn, having been battered and beaten in their former lives by all manner of harsh road and climate conditions, can vary wildly in color and overall looks, even within the same piece of tarp. Fraying is common, as are holes, with patches attached based on need, scrap availability and the individual hat crafter's inspiration. Patch stitching is often heavy, in swooping loops, or in sharp spikes and dips that look like something from a lively EKG. Some hats even have bits of Portuguese writing stamped on them in waterproof black ink.You'll find a short description of each hat's uncommon origins printed on the inside of its crown.The singular life of each recycled truck tarp, along with the hats' handcrafted assembly, means no two RDBs can ever be alike. We can't begin to predict how one hat is going to vary from the next. So when you buy one of these recycled, handmade hats, understand that

Review: ECCENTRICALLY COOL. - I noticed that one of the predominant comments others have made is that the XXL hat actually FIT! I, too, inherited a large cranium. 7 3/4 to 7 7/8 hat size. I can remember as a kid betting a haberdasher who was showing me a gorgeous jacket that the straw skimmer he brought out wouldn't fit. Not even close. I hate buying hats by L or XL or XXL because they almost universally don't fit. Well, IT DOES. And I love it! I have an expensive Tilley hemp which is nice, but this is the one I am going to wear. I love the beat up old look (I'm pretty beat up and old myself), it is light weight (which helps a lot here in south Florida), and talk about crushable! The thing came packed in an envelope! And as a two-university adjunct professor, carefully crafting my eccentricity, it is a great conversation piece. Great hat. BUY ONE!!!!!
Review: Should have bought two - Damn I love this hat. Finally found a hat that fits my giant head and actually looks good on me. I wear this every time i go hiking or camping. Or to the store. Or working around the house. My only issue is that when i sweat it soaks right through the canvas. Luckily, the hat is just big enough that I can wear a bandanna underneath to soak up moisture, which also gives it a snugger fit to prevent it from blowing off. I want a second one just for the hell of it.
