Made in the USA.
There are many straw hats, but only the best is Panama.
Made of Genuine Panama straw, woven in Ecuador, the Classic Optimo, is naturally soft, comfortable and light weight.
Treated for water repellency, reinforced with double support at the band line and inclusive with a light gauge brim reinforcement, this hat is a combination of style and engineering complimenting a new century of headwear manufacturing.
To test the repellency, we poured a cup of water onto the hat; to say the very least, we were impressed!
The water just beads up and rolls off! We shook off any extra drops and it was as good as new!
Being a panama folder, the hat is rollable and comes with a leather cord keeper to secure the hat.
Rain or shine, the Classic Optimo is the number one choice that stands up to it all!
