A sou'wester is a hat made of flexible waterproof materials worn to repel water, often with a neckstrap to keep it from flying off in strong winds. It was traditionally worn by sailors off the North Atlantic coast of the U.S. and Canada, and is distinguished by a wide brim that becomes especially long in the back for the purpose of protecting the neck from the elements.
