A sombrero is a type of hat originating in Mexico. Sombreros usually have a somewhat high crown and a very wide brim, used for protection from the sun, and the word likely derives from the Spanish word sombra, meaning "shade" or "shadow." The English word "sombrero" is a loan word from Spanish, where the term is used to refer to any hat with a brim.
