Panama hat "Óptimo" fino
The Colonial Hat in british style.
Fineness of the weave: Fino, finely woven - approx. 18 weaves per inch. For the manufacture of this hat our weaver needed about 4 - 5 weeks. After we have received your order, we will require 1 - 3 days to iron and block the hat body. Finally we sew in the ribbon and the sweatband by hand. 1 or 2 additional days may be required for an extra smaller or wider brim and for less common sizes (55 or 61 to 63). For that, we have to find the right hat body and enlarge or reduce the brim.
What is special about our genuine Panama hats? Once we receive your order, our hatmaker in Montecristi selects the right hat body. Then the hat body is steamed, blocked and finally the desired hat band is attached. Our finest Panama hats are not stored for long time. Therefore, you can feel the difference - the hats are smoother and more flexible.
To determine your hat size, measure the circumference around your head with a tape measure about a half-inch above your eyebrows where your hat will rest. If you don't have a tape measure, determine use a string and measure the length with a flat ruler. If your measurement falls between sizes, please choose the next largest size. Now you have your hat size.
