The Explorer Hat is a regular favourite from Engineered Garments thanks to its unique cut and useful hardware. Using a bucket hat as a starting point, EG gives the silhouette a bit of a raise and tilt – think of a leaning tower of Pisa. This means the hat actually has a specific orientation when worn to give it a functional front brim.

Speaking of function, one of the standout features of the Explorer Hat is its copious storage pockets on the sides; one wide and two narrow. Stash whatever – we won’t ask nor sniff out what’s inside. This hat works in a variety of fabrics: indigo denim with contrast stitching is surefire winner.
