FAQs

How should I hold the hat to prevent damage?

Always hold the hat by the base of the brim. Avoid picking it up by the crown to protect the integrity of the straw weave.

Can I wear this hat in the rain?

It is recommended to avoid getting the hat wet, as natural straw can lose its shape or warp when saturated.

What is the width of the brim?

The brim width is approximately 12 cm, providing excellent sun protection.

Is the canneté band replaceable?

The band is part of the hat's signature design. For repairs, it is recommended to consult a professional hatter.

How do I store the hat for long periods?

Store it in its original box, ideally in a climate-controlled environment, to prevent the straw from becoming brittle.

Troubleshooting

Hat loses its shape

Gently reshape by hand and store in a structured box or on a proper hat form overnight.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your hat remains in pristine condition, proper care is essential. When not in use, store the hat in its original branded box or hang it in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources. To clean, gently wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust or light debris; avoid submerging the hat in water or using harsh chemical cleaners. Because the straw is a natural material, avoid exposing it to prolonged humidity, which can weaken the weave over time.
