Help - Glastonbury Hat

[slumberjack]

Started a new topic in the hope that it'd get more attention. Does anyone know what the hats worn by the people in the photo below are called or know what they are made from? I had a similar one for years which I became rather attached to but have recently lost it. Any help or information would be appreciated.

they're like wizard or sorcerer hats. Gandalf style

These are made out of a seed pod if I remember correctly... Can't remember what they are called though! Sorry!

[formed a band]

It's called a zany cap and its made from a combination of hemp and the denial that you have to return to work the following week

Seed pod hat - brilliant! thanks!

[slumberjack]

Can't find them anywhere online though

Yeah I tried looking too, just to see if my memory was right... You can never be too sure that you haven't made something up when it comes to Glasto memories!

?

Or a gnome hat?

[slumberjack]

Academic, I wasn't after a pointy one, it's the material I was after really. You can't tell from the photo but the material is really thin and nearly see through.

The hat I had was pretty normal one, just made from that material. It was a great festival hat as you could fold it up and put it in your pocket!

Mini, I can't even remember buying the hat as we'd been at the cider bus for hours beforehand!

We bought ours at Glasto a couple of years back, but i'm sure i saw them on a stall last year for sale. Good luck hope you find one, they are a great hat, lost ours in the mud!

[K8P]

They are made of reconstituted weed and old hippies sandals : )

[Mini_web]

Again if I remember rightly the stall was just past the band stand (2010) so would def be stumbling distance from the cider bus!

The description for this one says it's suede;

I have a hat made from tree bark that looks like a similar material

I think that they are made from coconut fibre.
