...It was named after the Sando-gasa, used by couriers during the Edo period. It is said that Sando-gasa was first used during the Jōkyō era (1684-88), and those used around the Kan'en and Horeki eras (1748-64) were large, shallow sedge hats similar to onna-gasa, but those used around the Tenpō and Kaei eras (1830-54) were very deep sedge hats similar to manju-gasa, and were also called ōbuka. It is said that the reason for the deep sedge hats was to prevent injury to the face if a person fell off a horse, and also to protect against wind and dust. *Some of the terminology explanations that mention "Oofuka" are listed below.
