The Papa Nui Correspondents Hat is a collaboration between the Papa and Tony Sylvester. Using the conceptual premise that visiting Congressmen, government officials, and newspaper correspondents to the Vietnam capital of Saigon wanted to blend their civilian occupations with in-country style, the hat is a wonderful ‘what if’, where non-combatants meet martial styling at the hands of Mama-san’s workshop.
The Correspondents hat comes in an all-cotton Japanese milled Tiger Stripe Camouflage pattern. It features a red and blue ribbon band, a detail synonymous with the bucket hat styling and reminiscent of the colours of Grenadier Coldstream, Scotch, Irish and Welsh regiments. It comes with an in-country made UPI press patch which can be hand sewn at your preference.
