A unisex rain proof, shower resistant, or sun hat with built- in slap band named after the Greek name, protector of the people.
Worn around the wrist, the Ritza can be unfolded and worn as a hat at a moment’s notice. It can be worn unclipped or clipped around the neck. It can also be wrapped around a bag strap or just curled and stored in your bag.
The Ritza (protector of people, in Greek) is the name given to the original L’hood hat. It melds the strict, yet feminine lines of Cristobal Balenciaga’s wedding hat designed in 1967 with inspiration from a hat which the actress Gene Tierney wore in Forties film noir and a contemporary, utility feel.
A Ritza can be worn in many ways. It is a versatile alternative to an umbrella, it magics away to a compact strap which is portable on your wrist, much in the way we wear tech.
It is practical, functional, fun and yet it appeals to the design aficionado as much as it does someone who simply wishes to stay dry or protect themselves from the elements.
Whatever your style, whatever the weather there's a L’hood for you.
Made of 100% polyester with water repellent finishing
