I've owned this helmet for a few years now and wear it primarily for fishing in my canoe and working in the yard. Due to the internal suspension system, it is noticeably less hot to wear than a regular hat that sits against your head collecting sweat. Air can pass between your head and the helmet shell and heat can dissipate through the holes. The plastic construction provides a few substantial benefits: First, it means that the helmet is fully waterproof and works as an excellent rain hat to keep your head/face/glasses dry. Second, it cannot be stained by sweat, mud, concrete, fish slime, etc., and is easily washed clean. Third, you don't need to worry about maintaining the shape of the helmet like you do with some full brim hats. Fourth, this thing actually provides some decent physical protection from things like low-hanging branches, hail, dive-bombing birds, etc. For what it's worth, this is also the exact hat/helmet USPS couriers wear in the sun/rain.

I have been using this helmet for 9 years; when the sky is falling (rain, snow) or for shade in 100 heat. If the wind blows use the chin strap. Many comments from other shoppers. Light weight, comfortable. I assume the original pith helmet (Dr. Livingston I presume ) would be of compressed leaves and not as sturdy.
