(...making as much sense as a fez in Tiki, in my humble opinion) The one headpiece that never comes up, but has definite link to South Seas history, would be the Kiribati/Gilbert Islander Pufferfish helmet: These folks created full body armors and shark tooth weapons that already Robert Louis Stevenson collected: http://www.penn.museum/sites/expedition/corselets-of-fiber/ I think any Tikiphile would cut quite an imposing figure wearing such a hat at Tiki Oasis :D
