Appearance
The Safari Hat is a floppy, wide brimmed hat that changes color based on that of the wearer's ink, with the band being considerably lighter than the rest of the hat's dull shade. On the top of the hat is a brown design with a red lobster in the middle, hence the Japanese name "Lobster Boonie". It also has a thin black string securing it to the wearer's head.

As a 2-star item, the Safari Hat comes with two additional slots for secondary abilities, which may be increased to a maximum of three slots with a Super Sea Snail or 30,000 cash for each slot.
