ABSTRACT:
Protective hats having a crown and broad brim provide protection from the sun and by surfaces reflecting light and/or radar waves provide distress signalling means. The hats can be colored international orange for enhancing their usefulness as a distress signal. Due to stiffening means such as a springy hoop of suitable material contained within the peripheral binder of the hat's brim, it can be easily folded into a small package for storage or carrying on the person.
