Rep Power: 772 |  New Wide Brim Hats??
Someone on chat the other night mentioned the new hats with the wide brim.. I am trying to order one but they cannot figure out where to get it from. Does anyone who has one know the name of the company who is making the hat for UPS. I was told they would get it ordered if I could get more information on how to locate it. I would appreciate help on this information. Thanks |

The first thing that comes to mind is the Indiana Jones hat. It's wide brimmed like that and tall but it has a mesh for part of the crown and water proof canvas on the very top. It really is a very nice looking hat.

Day off today, but I did call in and order 5 sets of the new shorts and one of the hats!
We'll see what they look like when they come in! Longer shorts - I'm really hoping the leg room is a bit baggier fit. | |

There's a picture of the hat, the longer shorts, and a long-sleeved shirt jacket on UPSers.com. | |

Makes a hell of a hat. They might not like it too well, but it keeps the rain off the head and back.
And guess what.....ITS BROWN
