Father's Day Gifts


Father's Day is just around the corner. If you're like me, it's difficult to think of what to give Dear Old Dad. He's a man that has been around long enough to acquire the necessities and even some of the niceties of life, which makes it challenging for the rest of us to give him something nice. I came across these cool hats made in Brazil.

I will take the description directly from their site since they did such a fabulous job at it:

"The Real Deal is made in Brazil of recycled canvas tarpaulins from cargo trucks used for transporting goods. Even the shapeable wire brim braved the Brazilian jungle, yet on a much more intimate scale having come from old worn truck tires. Each hat and bag is truly one of a kind as no two are the same. Each has its own unique character. Made from various colors of tarp, they may have patches, seams, holes, or even Portuguese writing. They are hand sewn by Brazilian villagers and reflect the true craftsmanship of the locals."

I'm taking the liberty of posting this on an Art Blog because each hat is hand made and completely unique... making them a work of art. Besides, it also relates to Fashion which is an art as well, right?

You can purchase these hats for the special Father in your life at readldealbrazil.com. Be patient... the site is a bit image-heavy.
