The Big Size 4XL Real Deal Brazil Tarp Hat
*Add a chin cord to your hat - see related items below
There's something very familiar about it, and something that's really not. The original Real Deal Brazil recycled-tarp hat is sort of like a fedora, sort of like an Aussie Outback hat -- except after a full day spent atop Indiana Jones as he's being beaten and dragged to within an inch of his life.
From color shifts to wild and jagged stitching, ragged patches, stains, frays, punctures and even occasional ink marks, every uncommon characteristic of the Original RDB hat hints at the story of its prior life as a lonely truck tarp, and its rough journeys through harsh elements in the starkly shifting climates of Brazil. It's such a cool history for a hat to have that we actually print a short version of it inside each crown!
The original Real Deal recycled-tarp hat is handcrafted in a remote town in equatorial Brazil, where recycling actually informs nearly every aspect of production, from the salvaged tarp scraps being applied as patches on other hats right down to the heavy wire hidden within each brim. That thin band of steel, reclaimed from trash-bound old truck tires, adds yet another element of uniqueness, allowing you to
shape
your own RDB pretty much any way you please!
Authentic, rugged and effortlessly cool -- find another head-topper that can top that!
Fits size 8.25 to 8.5
3" wired brim

Perfect rain hat
This is my third or fourth one of these hats. I melt beeswax onto them to make them waterproof and a thousand times more awesome looking. They are like wearing an umbrella on your head. Don't ever stop making these! I hope the floppy tarp hats are made in 4xl soon. I would love to wax one of those.

Very comfortable
I bought the 4XL version of this hat here, since at ~8.5 hat size I can't buy anything in stores. I've had it for a few months now and I absolutely love it. It is very comfortable, and fits me better than any hat I've ever owned. I've received several compliments on it, it really is a great style. This is my third order from this site and I'm so glad I found it. "One size fits all" is a lie! :)

my hat
I have a size 8.5 head, and this is only the second brimmed hat I have found that fits me. I bought it to wear when working outside and it's a perfect application.

lots of hair, fits nicely under hat
Got this hat for sun protection and when it arrived I was very pleased to see it. Got some good natured ribbing from the gf for it, but dang I love this hat. Keeps the sun off the face, looks good imo, and fit as expected. I have a lot of hair so the 4x made life much easier. Highly recommend, esp. if you like a grungy-cowboyish aesthetic.

Awesome Hat!
I love my new hat! I have always had good experiences buying from your company. My sons’ baseball games in the 100 degree heat are much more comfortable. Please keep this hat available forever!

Q:
Big Size 4XL Original RDB Tarp Hat. Someone mentioned not dropping it in water; presumably that means it will shrink. So what happens, if anything, if it gets rained on a lot? Also, what does RDB stand for? Thanks
Asked by:
John Griffin
- 8/14/2020
A:
Our sincere apologies with delay in answering your question. Someone put it through without answering you. But great news, there is no shrinking with this hat. The material is literally tarp. Checkout description for all the amazing details on this hat as each hat is unique. The RDB stands for Real Deal Brazil company, I contract them out to produce their fabulous tarp hats in our sizes. Please don't hesitate with anything else can assist you with. Thanks ~ Fran

Q:
How much does this hat retain heat? I assume the trap is not very breathable? Is that a correct assumption or a wrong one? Do the grommets allow for sufficient air flow? Also, is it rigid or collapsible? Thanks!
Asked by:
Patrick Koontz
- 5/31/2021
A:
Hi Patrick, Thanks for reaching out to us. The Tarp is not a heavy tarp. I have customer reviews who wear this hat out in 100 degree heat. The open grommets allow for some air flow also. It is collapsible where you pack it in a suitcase to take on the road but it is so cool that you are going to want to wear it everywhere! It is also rigid enough that you can probably run it over and still look Amazing! Don't hesitate with any other questions you have or how we can assist you. Thank you - BHC Fran

A:
Hi Jerome, You have great taste! Real Deal Brazil Tarp hats are the coolest hats ever. As they are all unique from markings/patches/ etc. When you place your order on the website be sure to put comments in the note section on the checkout page "pick me a dark brown RDB". Then we can personally pick one out for you. Don't hesitate with anything else we can assist you with. Have a fabulous day

Hi Joe, We do have a customer that dyed his black. His picture is at the bottom of our website and on our instagram page for BigHeadCaps. He has his as a lighter black/gray. Possibly dye longer or a 2nd time depending on how deep that you want the color. Don't hesitate with any questions you may have. Thank you https://www.instagram.com/p/CnSUlG8vWHo/
