Vented Panama Fedora by Mayser Hats

Vented Panama Fedora Hat

Welcome to Bullwhipmaster. This vented Panama will keep you cool on the hottest days. The crown is 4 inches at the front and back and 4⅝ inches at the side, in a Fedora shape. The snap brim is 2½ inches wide. A 1¼ inch black, grosgrain ribbon adds a classic touch. Cloth sweatband.

The toquilla fiber is lightly bleached. The pinch is protected with silicone. Each hat is unique and there will be some variation in the open weave of the crown. Color is Natural. Hand woven in Ecuador from toquilla fiber. Finished and trimmed in Slovakia by Mayser Hats.

The bodies for our Vented Panama Fedora are hand woven in Ecuador in the Brisa pattern from toquilla fiber, the finest of the straws used in hats. The Mayser Panamas are blocked and trimmed in Slovakia. The bodies are tightly woven, and the weave is kept solid in blocking to ensure good protection from the sun. A substantial fiber is selected to produce a firm hat that holds its shape well. The pinch is reinforced to reduce breakage if the hat is handled by the pinch. These hats are great for hot sunny weather (but not suitable for use in the rain).

Hat Care

With reasonable care, Panama hats will last well. While extremely light fine weaves may be folded and rolled, the firmer weaves we offer should not be crushed. Pick the hat up by the brim, not by the crown or the peak, even though the peak is reinforced.

Panama hats are designed for protection from the sun. Do not wear them in the rain, and do not store them near the rear window of a car or truck, where they would bake in the sun.

When you put your hat down temporarily place it on its crown, so as not to distort the brim. Store the hat on a hat rack or supported at the sweat band in a hat box. Use a soft brush to remove dust.

Size Guide:

Heads come in all sizes, and in a surprising variety of shapes. Although most quality hats will usually conform to slight differences in shape with a little wearing, it is essential that the size be correct for the head.

To determine your hat size, measure the circumference around your head, keeping the tape level and firm, across the temples and above the eyebrow ridges. Check the size chart given below. Our Mayser Panama hats are sold by metric hat size. Mayser hats run almost a full size large. In-between sizes should order the next size down.

Check the Fit
When your hat arrives, check the fit before wearing to make sure you have ordered the correct size:

1. The sweatband inside the hat should fit securely on the head without binding.

2. For some in-between sizes, and for some head shapes, greater comfort may be attained by placing felt pads inside the sweatband. Felt pads are enclosed with Akubra hats.

3. The top of the crown should not be so low that it touches the top of your head and prevents the hat from coming down far enough to seat properly. If it does, you may need a smaller size.

If the hat does not fit, recheck your hat size, and exchange your hat for the correct size. Hats in unused condition with all tags can be returned within 90 days of purchase for exchange or full refund of product price.
