Fedora Panama Hat Gabin Natural - Crambes

Fedora Panama Hat Gabin Natural - Crambes

A Panama hat in Fedora style made of natural Panama straw, enhanced with a black ribbon.

This hat is made from a plant originating from the low plains of Manabí.

Here is a superb Panama that will adorn your beautiful days; it is the result of long sun-drying of young Carludivia Palmita palm fronds. 

It is exclusively this straw that provides this exceptional structure.

Since 1881, the quality and care given to its manufacture have made it the most famous hat in the world. It is a very light hat that can be adjusted thanks to its interior grosgrain band. It is the most elegant hat, a great classic that will protect you from the sun's rays.

In our shops or when ordering on our website, we can personalize your PANAMA hats by simply changing the ribbon to the color of your choice. Finally, it is also possible to screen print or embroider on the ribbon and offer entry-level Panama hats depending on the quantities requested.

Maintaining your Panama hat

The toquilla palm contains a certain degree of moisture, depending on its thickness; this gives it its flexibility.

When the hat is exposed to a humidity-saturated atmosphere (for example: beach areas without sun) the palm fiber absorbs excess moisture and expels it when the atmosphere is drier. This process weakens its structure over time. This is why the first models with a wider palm fiber do not last more than two years with significant climate changes.

To increase the lifespan of your hat, we offer you some maintenance tips here:

• Do not expose your hat to water. The palm fiber acts like a sponge.
• In case of an incident, let the hat rest in the shade for the time necessary to evacuate this excess moisture. - Do not leave your hat in a closed place and in direct sunlight (like the rear window of a car).
• The fiber dries too quickly and the hat may break over time. - Do not apply too much pressure on the same spot when handling it.
• The point of the fedora shape (style Borsalino, front part) is always the most fragile area and over time the palm fiber will break. It is recommended to hold your hat by the brim (sides), from underneath. You can easily steam iron your hat.
