Leave No Trace 100% Hemp Strapback | Brown
A hemp strapback from Rustek, an Oregon brand that builds headwear out of plants instead of petroleum. Most "eco" hats still run on polyester; this one doesn't.
Rustek describes its headwear as "made exclusively from plants, not plastic," and says it plants two trees for every purchase. Those are Rustek's claims, not ours — we list them because they're specific enough to check.

An estimated 8 million metric tons of plastic enter the ocean every year (Jambeck et al., Science, 2015). Most sports gear is still made from virgin plastic or animal leather — every product on this page was chosen because its maker does it differently.
Eco Sports plants a tree with One Tree Planted for every Eco Sports ball sold.
