MJ Panama Straw Outback Hat

4.8/ 5 113 Product Rating (113 Reviews | Submit a review)

Handwoven in Ecuador; Finished in the USA

UPF 50+ Sun Protection

Exclusive to Jaxon Hats, this fabulously styled Panama Hat was designed in California and has been spotted as one of Michael Jordan's favorite golf hats. The panama straw hat has been treated with Teflon™ stain repellent treatment, so the hat will look new longer and is still both breathable and durable.

Please Note: Hats, particularly straw hats, should never be handled by the crown. Hats should always be handled only by the brim. Constant pinching or handling of its crown creates stains and, in the case of straw hats, will result in cracking after some time. See our HAT CARE page for more information and other care tips.

4" Teardrop Crown (C-Crown)

100% Genuine Panama Straw - Brisa Weave Grade 3
(Handwoven in Ecuador)

Great Hat

By Roy from Rialto, CA | October 21, 2022

Price was excellent and the at fits perfectly. Prompt shipping, and I will buy from them again.

By William from Laurel, MD | August 23, 2022

When I received my order I was pleasantly surprised. It looked great and the fit was right. And I looked handsome in my new hat... It was awesome....

Great Hat

By Michael from Annapolis, MD | August 16, 2022

I have never owned a straw hat but am very pleased with the quality, fit, look and feel of the hat. I just wore it for 2 weeks in Grand Cayman and actually had numerous people come up to me to ask where I got the hat. That should tell you all you need to know.

Beautiful hat!

By Alina from Elkton, MD | July 9, 2022

This hat looked nice online, and even better in person! Such a high quality and great looking hat. It fit perfectly, and was shipped very quickly.

2nd one I've had in 25 years, amazing!

By Mike from Harrisburg, PA | June 24, 2022

I've had one of these hats since the late 90s and it stuck with me forever until the pressure the top of my head started to rip the top off. So, I ordered a new one. It's much higher quality and there's now a reinforcement layer to make sure your head doesn't poke a whole through the top! Amazing! Look no further for a man's perfect gardening hat.

By Anonymous from , | August 29, 2021

Love the hat. Sizes run small so had to return the first hat but return policy made it easy and I quickly received a new one. I will be a repeat customer

MJ Panama straw hat

By Bill from Walkerton, IN | July 13, 2021

Great fitting light summer hat to keep the sun out of your eyes. Nice style and well made!

My Brother-In-Law Likes It!

By William from Mount Holly, NJ | January 19, 2021

I bought this as a Christmas gift. My sister said he loves it.

Great hat

By Stephen from Fort Worth, TX | August 11, 2020

Amazing hat, great history behind the building of the hat. Very light in weight and true to size. Great summer hat!

Jaxon Hats

By Paul from Enfield, NS | July 7, 2020

Excellent quality, fast shipping, fits perfect.
I would recommend to a friend.
Thank you from Canada

Panamanian Perfection

By Jon from Glen Rock, NJ | June 9, 2020

This hat is worth every penny. It’s a beautiful object to hold in one’s hand. It fits perfectly in accordance with the chart. Classy, comfortable, with just the right amount of brim to really keep the sun out of my face. I am routinely surprised when people compliment me on my hat!

Second Time buying this Hat

By Steve from Ankeny, IA | May 23, 2020

I purchased my first Panama Straw Outback Hat several years ago. Unfortunately, I damaged it recently and decided to buy another. The quality of these hats is excellent. The fit, most importantly, is right on. I wear a 7 1/4 and the large with the slightly elastic interior band fits perfectly. I highly recommend these, great looking, two nice colors. I've had one of each. Durability? Not too good when you hit a tree limb when mowing. The rest of the time, perfect. Fast careful shipping too.

Great hat

By Chuck from Tequesta , FL | November 21, 2019

Looked everywhere for a SPF Panama hat and finally found it here. Everything about the process of picking out the hat, the sizing, and finally the ordering was easy and efficient. When I received this hat it was perfect.

Love the hat

By Thomas from Morgan Hill, CA | August 20, 2019

Great hat, fits fine and looks fantastic

Perfect

By Jake from Marion, IA | July 26, 2019

Even cooler than pictured. A well made, light, sharp hat. I searched the internet and found Village Hat Shop had the best selection (especially for my 2XL head) and free shipping to boot. Highly recommend.

Just what I wanted

By Gregory from Qionglin Township, | December 24, 2018

The hat arrived in perfect condition and, thankfully, it fits me. It will serve me well to protect from the sun.

Nice Hat

By Jim from Tampa, FL | December 21, 2018

I live in a warm climate, so I like hats that have a broad brim and ventilate. This hat fits all the requirements. First time ordered with Village Hats and very pleased.

Nice Hat

By Robert from Boise, ID | September 12, 2018

Really like the hat. Fits true to size stated in hat sizing guide.

Jaxon Hats MJ Panama Straw Outback Hat

By Khalid from Boston, MA | August 30, 2018

The correct fit with quality and style. I really love the look and the wide brim to protect me from the sun.

By Duane from Pearl City, HI | August 3, 2018

This is simply the nicest hat I have ever owned. Perfect fit, lightweight, and looks fabulous.

By Anonymous from , | July 7, 2018

absolutely great

By Mike from Oologah, OK | June 13, 2018

Very nice hat! Fast shipping and nice packaging. Would buy again!

SPF50+ Protection

By Jack from Raleigh, NC | May 6, 2018

MJ Panama Straw Hat look great. I do have a question. Hat was advertised as SPF50+ but when I got the hat there was no tag or notation stating the sun protection feature. I have had skin cancer on my face and the sun protection is critical. Would like to be assured the hat is SPF 50+.

***This hat was officially tested and received a UPF 50+ sun protection rating. Not all manufacturers provide tags. However, even with a UPF 50+ hat, the use of sunscreen is always recommended.*** -VillageHatShop.com

Excellent Purchase

By Charles from Fort Meyers, FL | April 17, 2018

Was everything I expected. Excellent fit and well constructed. Just what I needed to keep the Florida sun off of me, have worn to baseball games as well as other outdoor events.

I love It

By HAGAI from PETACH TIQWA, IL | October 28, 2017

It's a very nice product to walk with out side

Great Hat

By Eric from Clermont, FL | September 5, 2017

What an awesome experience. First time ordering form these guys. The hat arrived in great condition and fit just as the size it said would! MJ Panama looks great, thanks for the awesome service!

Nice Hat but HOT

By James from Bowling Green, KY | August 22, 2017

This is probably the nicest Panama Straw hat that I have ever purchased. The crown is a nice height. It does not have any vent holes and the weave is so tight that airflow is minimal inside the hat, making it a hot hat. It keeps its shape nicely.

Quality Hat

By Steve from Covington, WA | August 17, 2017

I have bought many hats from Village Hats. This one is a good one.
Fit, color and quality of the hat are very good. I am pleased with this purchase.

PERFECT PROPORTION

By Jerry from Eugene, OR | July 20, 2017

I own two Jaxon Outback Panama straws, This is my second review. because it suits me to a T. Brim is wide, I would not wear it in the wind without a chin strap. Law of physics. but it is stylish without looking like a cowboy or a sombrero. There definitely is something about a man in a panama. Ask Bogart.

Great Hat & Great Service

By Roger from Weatherford, TX | July 12, 2017

My wife was actually looking for a place for me to purchase a new straw summer hat, low and behold she found the Village Hat Shop and I am so glad that she did, I have bought 3 hats in about 3 months, that should tell the tale, I would not keep coming back for another one, if I were not very Happy with the service and the pricing that I have received, Great Job Folks, Keep up the Good work
Roger

Great Hat!

By Russ from San Jose, CA | July 6, 2017

I had been eyeing this hat for some time. After finally purchasing it, I am completely satisfied. The fit, color and style are great. You can't go wrong with purchasing a Jaxon! Thanks Village Hat Shop.

Great Hat

By Lance from Argyle, TX | June 18, 2017

Second hat in this style - my other is still in great shape. I only wanted to ensure I had a spare.
Great hat and fits to size.

A Comfortable Unit

By Lob from Coupeville, WA | June 17, 2017

Although this my first Panama style hat, to me it has the look and feel of a quality Panama. Shipping was quick and it arrived in fine shape despite the box looking like it was run over by the delivery truck.
It's been too cool and rainy in the great Northwet to comment on sun protection, however due to its light weight and wider brim I'm sure it will work well.

Loved the hat

By Michael from Leesburg, GA | June 17, 2017

perfect hat arrived in perfect condition. shipping was quicker than expected. my second hat from village hat shop. looking forward to my next hat from village hat shop.

Love my Panama hat!

By Carl from Aurora, IL | June 16, 2017

This is my first purchase from Village Hat Shop. I am impressed with the quality of the hat and how well it was packaged for shipment. Perfect fit and a great hat for summer. My wife loves the look of this hat on me.

Love it, but

By Bill from Clarkdale, AZ | April 6, 2017

I love this hat and it looks very sharp. My only criticism and this may not be a fair one, but the hat seems very delicate. It doesn't recover well from a mistaken crush. The straw breaks easily and the hat looses its wonderful look. I'm buying another one and going to try and be more careful, but I was trying to with this one too and goofed once.

Well constructed hat!

By Bruce from Roswell, GA | March 21, 2017

This hat is my wife's favorite. It is well built, and sturdy, and I will be wearing it a lot this summer. Sizing was perfect. I am extremely pleased with this purchase.

Great hat!!

By Kate from Pinehurst, NC | November 9, 2016

This is the third hat of this type I've purchased from the Village Hat Shop. It fits perfectly, holds its shape and looks great! My husband wears it all the time.

Panama Hat

By Arnold from Toledo, OH | October 25, 2016

What sold me was the picture of the inside of the hat. Should describe the hat liner, especially if the hat has a crown reinforcement and if the panama is teflon coated. The quality is very good - #8 - fits fantastic, though i added a little to the liner. I will buy more from this store, has the best description.

Great Experience

By Heston from Graceville, FL | August 23, 2016

This is my first purchase from Village Hat Shop but not my last. This is a quality hat. The sizing charts worked great. It arrived in very good packaging with no damage. Thank you!!

A Great Hat â˜º

By Kenneth from San Diego, CA | August 11, 2016

I bought this hat at the Hillcrest store in San Diego. This is a great hat. It is exactly what I was looking for. The workmanship and quality are excellent. I never thought I'd pay this much for a straw hat, but it's worth it. The salesman even gave me a discount. Be prepared to look and feel great when you wear it. Get one.â˜º

Great hat.

By Lance from Argyle, TX | July 20, 2016

Good hat, sized right.
Quick service.

Great Hat

By Paul from Glencoe, MO | July 13, 2016

Received my hat on time as promised and it looks and fits great, I have gotten several compliments while wearing it already. If you are looking for a Panama hat with a slightly larger brim, I would recommend this hat.

Just as ordered.

By Arthur from Ashby, NE | June 21, 2016

Beautiful. Just a note to the full headed....fits size perfectly. ....but not a lot of room up top.

Summer hat

By Don from Easley, SC | June 8, 2016

Just what I thought it would be. Not surprised from Village Hat Shop.
On the mark again.

Love it!

Fit is great.

By Mark from Modesto, CA | May 13, 2016

This is my first straw hat. The fit is great. I also get compliments from my friends who wear hats. But I find that the finish is not all that great. There are a few raw edge spots underneath the brim at the outer edge. They tend to catch on my fingers. Now, I realize that this is a $100 hat and not a $3000 hat but I am somewhat disappointed in the finish.

Very nice hat

By Christian from Terrebonne, QC | May 2, 2016

This is my first Panama hat. It is a very light hat and very good quality. Hat fitting is very accurate and it fits well. Can't wait to show it off this summer.

Loved it

By GEM from Peoria, AZ | April 27, 2016

Absolutely love my new hat, great fit, great color and delivery was better than expected. WILL CONTINUE TO SHOP AT VILLAGE HAT SHOP. THANKS

Great looking and perfect fit!

By Jay from Edmond, OK | April 21, 2016

I recently ordered this hat based on a referral from a good friend of mine who has been wearing them for years. I could not be happier with the quality of the hat! The fit is right on with the advertised size. The hat looks amazing and I'm definitely a fan now too!

Great hat

By Barry from Harrington, DE | April 2, 2016

Great hat. perfect fit. quick shipping at a good price.

Brilliant Hat

By Grant from Auckland, NZ | March 1, 2016

Very pleased with my purchase as hats of this type and quality are not readily available in New Zealand. Fit was absolutely perfect and the quality obvious. Service and international delivery from Village Hats was first class.

MJ Outback Hat

By Bill from San Antonio, TX | September 9, 2015

Great hat, fits perfect. Just what I was looking for. Exceptional service will use Village Hat Shop again.

Panama MJ Outback

By Steve from Whitehouse, TX | August 10, 2015

After being diagnosed with skin cancer I was determined to find a nice looking wide brim hat to wear as part of my regular attire. I never wore hats before, especially baseball caps, as they just don't look good on me. Well, I finally found the perfect hat in this Panama MJ Outback hat. It is a very good looking hat and it shades my face and neck. Wish I would have had it 20 years ago. This is an excellent hat for skin protection that looks very cool!

MJ Outback

By Kevin from Hackettstown, NJ | July 17, 2015

This hat is absolutely perfect,recieved it just in time for the hot ,humid weather.

Love the hat!

By Steve from Hurst, TX | July 16, 2015

Always looking for a cool hat (figuratively and literally) for the Texas summer. Searching the web, I found the perfect hat style and was impressed by the description. I was a bit shy about the price, but the video history of the manufacture of the hat sold me. Perfect online experience: easy purchase, informed of the shipment, and it arrived on time in a solid box. To top off the purchase, it fit like a glove. It's light (I can feel the breeze blow through the weave), it's flexible, and my son told me that the style is the perfect look for me.

Great hat!

By Mike from Pocatello, ID | July 14, 2015

The MJ Outback was my first Panama and I am very pleased with it. It is very comfortable, looks great and quality appears to be excellent. I have received several compliments on it. I purchased a large and it fits my size 7 3/8 perfectly. Shipping was very quick. A great hat, thanks VHS!

Very Attractive Hat

By John from Edenton, NC | July 14, 2015

This is a great looking hat with excellent quality. I measure 22.5 inches for my head size and this put me just on the bottom edge of large. I think medium would be too small so I just added a little cushion in the sweat band. Only problem is that avoiding the rain this summer has made it difficult to wear the hat because it seems every day has some rain in it.

I am proud to own this hat!

By Robert J Connally from Saint Louis, MI | July 7, 2015

I have been looking for a good quality summer hat. I am happy to say I found one. It keeps the sun off my head and neck and looks great while doing it!

Panama MJ Outback Hat

By Sancho from Chula Vista, CA | July 3, 2015

A well-made, well fitting straw hat for a reasonable price. Very comfortable and cool in hot weather. I like it so much that I bought it in both putty and natural.

Great Hat!

By Robert Hoskins from Valemount, BC | June 12, 2015

Loved it but it was a little tighter than the last one I ordered,

Among the greats

By Steve from Bartlesville , OK | June 11, 2015

I have owned this hat for several years now after buying it here. The first was a large. It was too big for me but my brother loved it! I bought a med. for myself rather than return it, and I love mine also. These wear well. They hold up well, are attractive and although my Baily Brooks is my fave this one looks far better on me and I wear it a lot more. Great USA hat!

Perfect

By Eddie from Calhoun, GA | May 12, 2015

Just exactly what I ordered. Sizing was correct and color was represented well. Quality was exceptional. Fast service. XX is close to a perfect size 8.

Very nice hat

By Tod from Washington, DC | May 11, 2015

Great hat, fits as expected, nice and light, love the protective coating so no stains, great for summer

AWESOME!!!

By Shelly from Livingston, NJ | May 8, 2015

My Husband had been searching for a hat for a Kentucky Derby Charity Event we attend every year at Monmouth Park in Oceanport NJ.

We ordered the hat the week before the event hoping it would be here in time. It arrived in 3 days fit perfectly and my husband was the toast of the event as it looked wonderful on him and he was given numerous compliments. In fact every one wanted to try it on!!!

Love the quality!

By Robert Hoskins from Valemount, BC | April 21, 2015

I was very happy with the quality of the Panama hat I received. It was above my expectations. The reinforcement inside the top of the front is a great idea. I feel I got good value for my dollar.

Great hat

By Louis from Huntington, NY | April 19, 2015

very well made, fits well, looks good. Dollar for dollar it's hard to beat!

AWESOME!

By Ron from Belvidere, VT | April 14, 2015

Love the hat, great quality!
Needed a hat for warmer weather, so happy with it.
Look forward to purchasing another hat!

Great Panama Hat - Happy Hubby

By Theresa from Vancouver, BC | April 13, 2015

Getting a size that is really in the 7 5/8 - 7 3/4 range is difficult. But this Panama Hat in Size XXL fits beautifully! Quality is very good and it looks great on. Brim size is perfect for golfing for overall sun protection.

The delivery was right on schedule and only $9.95 to Canada - bonus!

Thanks Village Hats!

Gets lots of compliments

By John from Santa Rosa, CA | April 9, 2015

Fits well and looks great. Broader rim than a standard Panama so looks a little more western. People come up to me in stores and tell me what a great looking hat it is. Love it.

MJ Outback

By Jer from Windsor, CO | March 31, 2015

AS good as advertised, sizing was perfect!!

Great shape

By Robert from Nashville, TN | November 11, 2014

really like the outback shape. Fits well, I normally wear either a small or medium, and sometimes 6-7/8 or 7 even. Had to switch the small for a medium, but fit perfectly. Color could have been darker for my taste, but I am still very satisfied.

Perfect experience!

By Kevin from Louisville, KY | November 10, 2014

Great hat, shipped with care, quality! Great company!

Nice suprise

By Steve from Sierra Vista, AZ | August 25, 2014

I was a little concerned on buying a hat on the internet since I wear a very large hat. But it fit perfect and very very happy

Very nice hat.

By Milton from Gilroy, CA | August 5, 2014

This is the fifth hat I've bought from Village Hat Shop. Four Sunbodys, and this Jaxon. All are excellent quality. The Sunbodys are heavier, thus stiffer in the wind, so they retain their shape, and don't flop around. This is good on windy days, but I also wanted something lighter. Another good selling point for me are the large sizes. I have a big head, size 7 7/8~8, so finding one that fits is a real pain. I've gotten a lot of compliments on all of them. My only complaint is that I paid an extra $30 for 2 day shipping, but it arrived 5 days later. I'd give 5 stars for the hat, but I'll deduct one for the shipping.

Good Quality - Correct Stiffness

By Chuck from Lawrenceville, GA | July 25, 2014

If you read my other review, you'll see that I was surprised by the stiffness. I did a little more research and discovered that was to be expected. The color and weave of the crown and brim are very consistent and the backweave is perfect. The size might be a little on the large size, but it depends on your activity level. Mine is fine for walking but wouldn't stay on if I was running or the wind was blowing.

Good but stiff

By Chuck from Lawrenceville, GA | July 25, 2014

The quality of the material is very good, but it's very stiff - both the crown and the brim. It was surprising to me, making it less desirable. It's my first Panama, so maybe they're all like this. This one includes a reinforcement in the crown that strengthens it. Tapping the hat sounds like a tight drum. If I get my way, it will ""wear in"" over time. If so, the hat will be perfect.

A Real Bargain

By Rob from Rio Rancho, NM | July 21, 2014

This is a wonderful hat. Fit and finish are perfect. I've always wanted a real panama but never thought I could afford it. At this price I can and I couldn't be happier with it.

Perfect!

By Anne from Lake Balboa, CA | July 19, 2014

i was looking for a straw version of a Pendleton outback hat for my man. he has a dinosaur sized head and their straw version didn't come in xxl. we were headed to Vegas for his bday and his wool Pendleton just wouldn't work for july. found a straw version at village hat shop and it was perfect, he was totally surprised and wore his hat thruout trip. very pleased with purchase!

Many Compliments

By Vic from Northport, NY | July 12, 2014

I researched this hat to death (like I'm the only one LOL). And then it wasn't available. Ugh! When a new supply came on line, I snapped it up. The hat was delivered in warp speed and the fit was outstanding. Thank you Jaxon for an outstanding hat and super fast delivery.

Excellent value

By Kevin from Poughkeepsie, NY | July 7, 2014

Bought as I play a lot of golf, and have had 2 precancerous lesions removed from my face. Fit and finish are superb. Comfortable and water resistance a plus. Reasonably priced. Excellent value

Great

By Jack from New Rochelle, NY | June 25, 2014

Perfect size. Great styling. Could not be better.

Nice Hat For an Old Dude With Skin Cancers

By Arnold from Glenwood, MD | June 18, 2014

This hat is the best looking, skin protecting hat on the market. It's wide brim and comfortable fit make it a must for old, golfing dudes who have / had (three) skin cancers removed. It's a stylish, functional head covering that will make you the coolest dressed golfer in your club!

Great Hat - Lots of Complements

By William from Alexandria, VA | June 13, 2014

I wore one of these out a couple of years ago and was happy to see it available again. Paid more than I liked, but you can't beat the looks of this hat.

I'm a happy camper

By Dave from Richmond, IN | June 11, 2014

Very nice hat and I'm pleased. Very impressed with how fast you had it delivered. Will do business with you folks again

""Great Hat""

By Jim from Satellite Bch, FL | May 29, 2014

I love the hat! It is exactly what was depicted & the size is perfect!

Best hat ever

By Craig from Bedford, TX | May 6, 2014

I receive so many compliments on the hat Hope they receive a new shipment soon

Husband Loves!!!!!!!!!

By Melissa from Davie, FL | February 9, 2014

Great hat. He definitely gets complements on it. Having recently treated pre-cancer and living in FL, a hat is a must have. I have kept checking back because I wanted to get one for a friend but so far they have only had small sizes. Hoping they don't discontinue this one.

Good buy

By Jesus from Calexico, CA | May 26, 2013

I like the style, although I would like the brim to be a little bit wider to get more sun coverage.

Real Fedora Shape

By HIRAM from Boca Raton, FL | May 6, 2013

I love this hat: the brim is wide, the crown is high. It's a beaut. A lot of people have said it. And here in Florida you have to protect yourself from the sun. It will give you cancer if you don't.

MJPanamaOutback

By Jerry Williams from Eugene, OR | July 18, 2012

This hat is as light weight and as cool as a $400 panama, I love the darker shade choices. The 3"" brim is 1/2"" deeper than other styles.

Jaxon MJ Panama Outback Hat

By Albert Andersen from Stephens City, VA | May 8, 2012

Lovely quality hat that is comfortable & good looking. Problem is that it is not deep enough to stay on my head with even a slight gust of air. Passed it along to a friend rather than spend good money shipping it back. He admired it, likes hats in general and this one in particular, until he decided it was too shallow, as well. How does MJ do it?

Jaxon MJ panama outback

By Fred Lowery from Dallas, TX | May 3, 2012

Every time I order from The Village Hat Shop I'm very satified. It always fit and I get quick delivery I really love my Jaxon Panama Outback hat. I believe its hat number 5 from you guys

Very Comfortable

By Robert Greene from Sautee Nacoochee, GA | April 18, 2012

Very nice fit and is super comfortable, a lot of hats are very stiff, this one kind of molds to your head shape.I like it alot and would recommend it to friends

Jaxon Panama Outback Hat

By Anonymous from , | April 13, 2012

Great website, good instructions on measuring head for proper fit. Qucik ship... I'll be ordering from The Village Hat Co. again.

A Fine Hat

By Ed Bollix from Royal Oak, MI | August 10, 2011

My son gave me a $100 gift cert for fathers day from The village Hat Shop; he knows that this is the place my hats come from. I immediately selected this hat as well as the crushable outback pictured elsewhere. It's the hottest summer in Michigan history and there has hardly a day gone by that I have not worn this hat. It's very high quality, well made and has a liner inside the front top to keep the hat from getting crushed, what a brilliant idea. The hat is light and comfortable, my first Panama. I have other summer hats but this is the one I wear; an excellent choice.

Very nice, good looking hat

By Kodiakken from Las Vegas, NE | July 15, 2011

I just bought a house in Las Vegas and wanted a hat to protect me from the sun. This hat will do the job in style. Good looking and light weight. I never ordered a hat like this on the internet, or mail order, and was a little worried it wouldn't fit and I would have to send it back. I used the hat sizing guide on this web site and it fits great.

A Favorite

By Anonymous from , | August 26, 2010

The first one -- putty color -- I loved. It blew into the sea when I was out sailing. Circled back and picked it up. Wore it wet. It got a bit elongated -- which looked even better. Left it under a seat at the theater (a perennial problem with hats) and ordered another, also in putty color. Having learned from the first one, I dunked it in the pool and shaped it the way I wanted. Love it!

Feels good

By Bill from Bethesda, MA | March 20, 2010

The hat was delivered quickly and was safely packed. I've just recently started to wear hats on a full time basis so I wanted to get something for warmer weather. I had seen this hat before on the vhs website but passed on purchasing it. When it went I sale I immediately bought it and I'm glad that I did. It doesn't seem very tightly woven, however, so it may not be the best thing for coverage from the sun. On the other hand, it seems to let air in nicely when there's a breeze! It also had a few broken strands, one at a fairly noticeable place on the top of the crown, but I thought that just goes with having a straw hat. It's not a big deal, and I feel that I got a nice hat at a good price.

BEAUTIFUL HAT

By Terry Hudgins from Cumming, GA | January 18, 2010

I already had this hat in the natural color. It is my favorite out of 5 hats so when you put it on sale I had to have another one. I got the putty color this time so I have a color choice. This hat came slightly larger than the first (handmade is going to vary from hat to hat). Fortunately, I had a vhs hat sizer on hand. Now it fits perfectly.The teflon coating makes the hat stiff, but sheds rain very well and stays clean. Thanks for another great value in a great hat.

Jaxon MJ Panama Super woven

By Riza Gokalp from Santa Barbara, CA | December 8, 2009

Panama hat

By Anonymous from , | September 6, 2009

Excellent .... Person I gave to was really happy and it was delivered on time and no problems what so ever...I actually called and ordered the hat and the customer service was terrific!

Compliments all around

By Jeff from Spartanburg, SC | July 15, 2009

This hat has brought me so many compliments and people wanting to know where I bought it. It fits and blocks the sun very well. I'm just glad you had it in my size(XXL), because I couldn't find my size anywhere until I came to your site. Thanks

Not bad

By Paul Cappiello from Louisville, KY | July 8, 2009

Comfortable and fits well but I have found the construction to be on the wimpy side. I may use my hat harder than most as I am outside at least a couple of hours a day at work and use the hat almost every day. I don't see it lasting more than a season under that use. The brim is not a sufficiently tight weave to block out the sun - it leaves bright spots shining through. Probably fine for someone looking for a casual sun shield.

Great Hat

By J Brady from , MN | June 22, 2009

I gave this hat to my son-in law for his birthday.He had left his previous hat on an airplane. He loves it and has had many compliments on it. He ordered 1 for each of his 2 sons. They all wear their hats and look so handsome!

Jaxon Panama

By James Harwood from Sonoma, CA | June 18, 2009

Hat came in other than ordered color.I ordered dark. It came light.Does not have universal one size elastic hat band, therefore not as secure in wind as my previous brand.

This is a great hat. Fit was good. It has been through a couple of heavy rains and it holds its shape and looks great. I have had nothing but complements when I wear it. Thanks for a great hat.

Excellent Hat!

By Terry Field from Albany, NY | August 19, 2008

I love to own and wear hats and this one is a nice addition to my wardrobe. The hat is very stylish, lightweight and comfortable. It has great proportions and feels good and looks good while wearing. It is a very well-made hat especially for the price offering good value for your hat dollar. This is the perfect summer hat and attracts many positive comments when I am out. Highly recommended!

Excellent Value

By Terry Hudgins from Cumming, GA | July 21, 2008
