Fedora Panama Trieste Hat - Traclet

The traditional Panama hat

A panama hat style borsalino in Panama, made of natural straw with a black ribbon

This hat comes from a plant from the lowlands of Manabí

Here is a superb Panama hat that will adorn your beautiful days; it is the result of a long drying in the sun of young palms of Carludivia Palmita

It is exclusively this straw that provides this exceptional maintenance

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 coarse inner grain. It is the most elegant hat, a great classic that will protect you from the sun.

In our stores 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 make a silk-screen print or an embroidery on the ribbon and to propose first price Panama hats according to the quantities requested.

Maintenance of your Panama Hat

The toquilla fin contains a certain degree of moisture, depending on its thickness, which gives it its flexibility.

When the hat is exposed to an atmosphere saturated with moisture (e.g., sunless beaches), the fin absorbs excess moisture and expels it when the atmosphere is drier. This process weakens its structure with time. That's why the first models with a wider palm don't resist more than two years with important climatic changes. The extra fine Cuenca and Montécristis do not have this problem because they use a finer palm and a denser weave

To increase the life expectancy of your hat, we offer here some maintenance tips:

• Do not put your hat in contact with water. The fin acts like a sponge.
• In case of an incident, let the hat sit in the shade for as long as it takes to wick away excess moisture. - Do not leave your hat in a closed area in direct sunlight (like the back 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 to grip it.
• The tip of the fedora shape ( Borsalino style, front part) is always the most fragile area and over time the fin will break. It is recommended to pick up your hat by the wings (sides), underneath. You can easily iron your hat with steam.
