The Crasche hat is ideal for people who should wear a helmet, but do not. It can be worn by skiers, snowboarders, bicyclists, hikers, skateboarders, roller bladers and for athletes in other sports who usually do not wear helmets, such as girls lacrosse, girls field hockey and touch football. It can also be used by those who are in law enforcement and in the military for situations where head protection would be beneficial, but a helmet may not be practical.  

Crasche hats can also be used to ward off the elements, especially during the cold-weather months. They are machine-washable and the protective inserts can be easily removed and re-inserted. The hats can be worn, with or without the protective inserts. In addition, all Crasche hats are made in America.
