Cuenca Grade 4 - Similar to a Montecristi Fino Grade type of weavePlain rounded topSnap brim on the front causing the brim to tip downward slightly and upward in the back just a little.
Beyond Serious Sun Protection: Larger brims begin to take on a stronger western look, which can be a great style choice - especially for Texas, or for anyone who likes that bold sun hat appearance. Because of their added size and weight, these larger brims tend to tip downward a bit in both the front and back and can feel a little floppy in the wind. If you add a curled edge to the brim, it will hold its shape much better. Even a small curled edge adds noticeable rigidity and helps the brim keep a cleaner shape.
Brim size can be difficult to recommend because many factors affect the right choice, including where you live, the local culture, how much sun protection you want, and your personal style.
Serious Sun Protection and Serious Style - Larger Than Standard Brims: This brim offers extremely generous coverage. There is a charge for larger than standard brims, and that price difference is already reflected in the price shown. This is because the weaver must spend additional time extending the brim and will charge a little more for that extra work.
We usually need time to make this hat for you because we almost never have this size in stock unless you are viewing it in the stock section. In most cases, this hat will need to be specially woven as a custom-made hat, so please allow extra time for production.
