    I have this funky hat that came from Mexico City as a gift. It is nasty with rust stains from the snaps and I need a new one. Having no luck in finding such a hat and have looked extensively.

    Closest thing was a guy at church had one he got on Isla Muj and he does not remember where. It was white and had an "Isla" touristy emblem.

    CAN ANYONE HELP WITH WHERE I MIGHT FIND THEM FOR SALE? I have been everywhere, even stores in the barrios, without even getting close to finding one or anything remotely similar.

    It sort of looks like this. It was probably $50-$100 Mxn 6 years or so ago.

    Color - Khaki
    Material - Kind of a canvas, probably cotton. Hard to say. No tags and I am a guy.
    Chin strap - Yes but all I do is move it to the back at the top
    Snaps - Yes. Rusty and I cannot clean them, in spite of trying many cleaners, like vinegar, lime juice, and home remedies.
    Outside band - Not on mine.
    Look and feel - Cheap, soft, who knows.

    Thanks gang,

    Check this link out. It might not be exactly what you're looking for, but it might be a starting pointing to help you find one. You'd have to get it shipped to you so I'm not sure if that would be a problem. I'll be coming down in July if you need someone to bring it down.

    Thanks a bunch Nevets. I looked at every item that came up under the categories of hunting and casual and found several that I like.

    Great suggestion.

    We have one - no chin strap and it is dark blue. Got it in the US for some reason and have never used it. I'll look for it and post a picture and you can have it if you want.
