Why? Because it actually offers sun protection when this long. The black shiny material on the brim is the same that is used on the visors of the midway caps worn by police officers.

Like the original, it features four eyelets on each side panel that provide ventilation. It is made in sturdy canvas to perform and last and has a dark green faux-leather underbrim to absorb reflected light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSometimes, when you have the courage to choose functionality over fashion, you wind up circling back to fashion’s doorstep.
