Wow, who would have thought this hat was possible? I know I sure didn't, but here it is- a copy of what Cuenca has been doing for years, a faster produced lighter weight brisa weave, but in the durable Montecristi straw! It's a NEW hat weave so encourage these weavers to continue by purchasing this new weave style!
It is a very durable hat unlike the Cuenca version of it! This hat did not go through the harsh chemical treatment that a Cuenca hat would always go through. The straw is also tougher and nice to work with when shaping. We're offering all the best things we normally offer in a Montecristi hat, like leather sweat bands, inner liners or sweat protectors (optional) or pinch protectors to further increase the life expectancy of this hat. Let's keep them weaving more!
Similar to a Cuenca single woven but much more durable.This Panama hat is blocked in a long oval, which is often a better fit for customers who need a little more room front to back. If you prefer, this model can also be requested in other oval shapes, including standard oval or X-long oval, depending on your fit needs.
ADD Long Oval Blocking (Special Request)
Crown: Front 3.6"/9cm, Back 3.8"/9.5cm
This Panama hat is the classic fedora style, also known as a center dent crown because of the dent that runs down the center of the crown. It is one of the most timeless and recognizable hat shapes, offering a balanced look that works well for both dress and casual wear.
The classic fedora is blocked on a semi long oval hat block rather than a perfectly round one to fit the average person better.
Prefer a taller crown? We also offer these special-request crown height options:
ADD 1CM Higher Crown Height (Special Request)
ADD 2CM Higher Crown Height (Special Request)
Snap brim on the front causing the brim to tip downward slightly and upward in the back just a little.
Almost a Stingy Brim: Just a little smaller than our standard brim, this size still offers some shade protection while keeping a shorter, sharper look. It is often chosen more for style than for sun coverage. Some people simply look especially good in a shorter brim.
