German term or phrase: Stallmütze
Stallmütze

Um welche Stallart es sich handelt spielt dabei keine Rolle. Die Stallmütze können Sie im Kuh-, Schweine oder Pferdestall einsetzen, oder wo immer Sie auch mit störenden Gerüchen in den Haaren zu tun haben.

Sie sparen sich das ständige Haarewaschen und schonen so Ihre Haare und gleichzeitig die Umwelt. Zudem können Sie sich im Freien bei Wind und Wetter aufhalten, ohne dabei nass zu werden.

neutral  Cetacea: A "barn hat" can be virtually any kind of hat (cf. e.g. http://www.cafepress.com/ barn hats-caps ) "Stallmütze" is pretty specific.
