Just like the Panama hat, it has the particularity of being able to be associated with both casual and dressy outfits.
Canotier handmade in France
A simple yet elegant hat shape, it is the perfect headgear to protect yourself from the sun during the hot summer days. Very fashionable in the 19th century, it is nowadays back in the spotlight during ceremonies or even during boat rides. This boater is entirely handmade in a traditional way in France, sewn with straw and decorated with a black ribbon. In addition to having a unique fashionable and elegant look, you will also have a good anti-UV protection which has already proven itself. Impossible to talk about the shape of the boater hat without mentioning its main designer Maurice Chevallier, who largely contributed to its prestigious reputation.

Some advice on the boater
The French canotier is made of straw in a traditional way, which gives it a very rigid set. In addition, it is a hat that does not sink like a classic hat because its cap is shallow even if it sinks better than an Olney boater which is often just placed on top of the head. Finally, this model of boater does not have an interior comfort band. The head reducer is thus essential to make it more comfortable and to fix it well on the head (not provided with the boater).

Le canotier est le chapeau d'été type. Etant Marseillais, ce couvre chef est pour moi traditionnel.

Très très bien. Belle fabrication artisanale. J'ai pris du 57 mais je crois que 58 aurait été mieux. Ce sera pour la prochaine fois...
