It was worn to protect the head as a substitute for a helmet. Jingasa were made of thin iron, leather, paper, and similar materials, with lacquer applied to the surface. In later times, lacquered hats with upturned edges were used for the outings of samurai. Over time, they evolved into items that incorporated artistic designs and materials reflecting social status and class. During the Edo period, they were often black lacquered with the family crest in gold, and were used by the shogun and his vassals for outdoor activities.
