This hat made of fiber has twisted rope to look like hair that is embellished with cowrie shells. Every hunter constructs his own shirt and hat that over the course of his life to reflect his skill controlling a powerful life force. This hat would compliment the hunters shirt or just be a unique hat to add to your collection or home.
