I would likewant to try and make an oldfashionedold-fashioned oilcloth hat, shaped like this thisDutch Harbor Souwester Hat. The base material beingis woven cotton, which iI would waterproof using oil and wax.

When picking a fabric does it matter if I pick something thin (100gr100 gr/m2) like printed cotton or should I pick a heavier canvas (200gr200 gr/m2) or even really heavy fabric (400 gr gr/m2)?

For firmness, I would use several layers when picking the thinner material. Can I just choose which fabric has the nicest print or should I worry about thin material wearing out much quicker?
