Elegant they might not be,but the long back of the
traditional souwester (or sou wester) hat keeps the rain or rough seas from
running down the back of your neck and the big brim keeps water out of your
eyes.They also double as a bailer or emergency bucket.Material for the souwester
is a heavy Yellow PVC on canvas backing (similar to the traditional
oilskins),and adults are made as one size to fit all,but we can do childs or
large sizes.The souwesters are hand made locally.The strap is fixed,non
adjustable and worn hanging down loose at the front because these are designed
for working in the hostile enviroment of a fishing trawler where a tight strap
could prove dangerous if it caught in machinery.The traditional colour is yellow
but we can also do red,blue or black.
.All same price £22 including post to
UK.
For anyone out in bad weather,trawlermen,vegetable
pickers,farm workers and Paddington Bear look alikes.
Traditional heavy duty foul weather
clothing.Designed to keep you dry,nothing less..
