Looks like a tweed pith helmet. Should offer a bit of sun protection to the ears with the 360 brim.

Oh well done,thank you. Now, just so that there is no mis-understanding_--------I know the title,on the picture, says deerstalker----IT IS NOT-----it is a fore and aft.

Jock Scot:

Most enlightening posts. No, I would say excellent posts! I really appreciate your good advice on Highland head gear.

Well ok, just to give you all one more tip on highland headwear,although this has nothing to do with the kilt, sorry mods.. On the hill in the depths of winter when the windchill factor is dangerous going on lethal, we use a tweed CAP with flaps that cover the ears and also covers the neck too. I cannot speak too highly of these wonderfully practical garments. Haggarts are,as far as I am aware,the only people that make them.You will see them on their website as "the bugatti". They are not worn with the kilt.

Again, most excellent and useful information! Thank you!

Yeah thanks for the info Jock! I really had no idea how often the Scots were going about kilted. We'll have to get ourselves over to Twickenham stadium to see more kilts being worn.

Seriously I wonder if the kilts are becoming more popular in the UK. They seem to be here in the US.
