Solar-Powered Cooling Pith Helmet

With cooling abilities far beyond the average sun-shading hat, this is the safari-grade helmet that harnesses the rays of the sun to power a miniature fan that keeps you comfortably cool while at the beach, on a hike, gardening, cheering a sporting event, or any other outdoor activity. The hat has a whisper-quiet motor powered by four compact solar panels on top. In the evening, or on a cloudy day, the fan is powered by two AA batteries (not included). As lighting conditions change, you can easily switch between solar and battery operation with a flip of a switch. Crafted from weather-resistant coated linen straw for reduced weight and the highest degree of breathability. Imported. 5" H x 11 1/4" W x 13 1/2" L. (8 1/2 oz.)
price: $49.95

Stash Sandals

Or if you’d rather your hostel-mates or the hotel chambermaid not think you’re a disgusting chap with a penchant for showing off your poo-laden unmentionables, Reef’s Stash sandals are just the trick. Although they’re technically marketed towards the ladies, they are offered in jet black. So if you’re a dude, no one has to know that you like to wear women’s shoes.

Bottle Opener Sandals

Fancy yourself more of a hops fellah than a wino?

Introducing the Fanning. Brilliant! Why didn’t someone think of this before?
