Introducing the Parapluie Hat—perfectly crafted for the chilly autumn days of the Pacific Northwest. Picture the vibrant fall foliage, the crisp air, and the inevitable drizzle that characterizes the season. During these cooler months, having the right headgear is essential for staying cozy and stylish. The Parapluie Hat is your go-to accessory to shield yourself from the cold breezes and unexpected rain showers. There's no better time to prepare for the changing weather than now!

The name “Parapluie” translates from French to mean 'umbrella'—and this charming hat aims to be your stylish solution for wet weather (because locals know that carrying an actual umbrella is a capitulation to the elements!). With its warm and snug brim, this design keeps drafts away from your ears, ensuring that you stay warm throughout the day. The whimsical raindrop pattern of the hat boldly declares your intent to enjoy every moment, come rain or shine! Plus, while a pom-pom is optional, it adds a fun flair that embodies that certain je ne sais quoi.
