Voodoo hat Papa Legba

The Papa Legba voodoo hat is a black hat with a low, flat crown from which a large curved horn rises on each side. At the front is a bunch of brown, beige and orange feathers with a small grey skull in the middle. Add it to a men's voodoo outfit, for example at Halloween or a themed party.

What is the Papa Legba voodoo hat made of?

The Papa Legba voodoo hat combines plastic with real feathers, and the horns form the most striking part.

• The material is 30% polyester, 35% latex, 20% PVC and 15% rooster feathers.
• The hat is black, the horns are brown with beige, and the feathers range from beige to reddish-brown and orange.
• The two horns have a scaly texture and curve outwards and upwards.
• Between the feathers at the front is a small skull, with several long feathers hanging down from beneath the brim.
• The hat is intended for men.
• Not washable.

Papa Legba and the voodoo theme

Papa Legba is a well-known figure from the Haitian voodoo tradition and is often depicted in films and at parties with a hat, feathers and bones. This hat features exactly that imagery: the skull and feathers belong to the ritual image, while the horns give it a devilish edge. This makes it suitable for a dark Halloween theme and a voodoo priest or medicine man look. If you prefer a neat, classic appearance, this is not the model for you: the wide horns make the silhouette broad and striking, so choose it if you want to be seen from afar.

How to make your voodoo look recognisable with this hat

The look is completed mainly with face paint: white stripes and patches around the eyes and on the cheeks turn your face into a mask, as seen in the photo. Dark clothing works well underneath, from a velvet jacket to a tattered shirt, complemented by necklaces made of bones, teeth or beads. Wear the hat slightly further back so that your face and face paint remain visible and the horns stand out well.

If you want to show up at a voodoo outfit for the day that immediately catches the eye, then this hat from Boland is a logical choice. Order before 11:59 p.m. and you will have it delivered tomorrow, and you have 14 days to return it.
