D-05 · Toquilla-style fine weave

Panama-Style Rollable

USD 268USD only · tax shown at checkout

Woven with slightly more give so the whole hat can be rolled along its length into a coil and returned to shape. Rolling is not folding: a crease across the crown leaves a permanent mark that steam will not remove.

How open the weave is

Very tight weave, woven loose enough at the crown to coil — pinpricks of light throughout.

Woven in Cebu, the Philippines · hand-blocked in Gata de Gorgos, Spain — not Ecuador, and not paja toquilla.

Head circumference

Measure just above the ears, level across the forehead. Between two ranges, take the larger.

Adding counts the badge up in the header. Nothing opens over the page and nothing is charged until you review the order.

Straw is a plant

Four things
this hat does.

Printed before you buy, not after you complain. A hat that cannot carry all four lines does not go on sale here.

  • Cracking

    Fine fibres are the first to split when a hat dries out. Keep it away from radiators and hot car interiors.

  • Fading

    Ivory warms towards cream in the sun. Uneven exposure will show as a lighter band.

  • Reshaping

    Rollable versions coil and recover. Blocked versions do not: creasing one leaves a mark you cannot steam out.

  • Weave gaps

    The tightest weave we sell. Held against a lamp you still see pinpricks of light between the fibres — it is a woven plant, not a sheet.

Care

  • Keep it out of dry heat

    Never leave it in a parked car or against a radiator. Dry heat is what makes straw crack.

  • Mist, do not soak

    A light mist of water two or three times a season keeps the fibres supple. Do not soak it.

  • Reshaping

    Mist lightly, press flat between two cloths and leave it on a flat surface overnight.

  • Storage

    Store it flat or coiled loosely — never leave it coiled tight for weeks at a time.

About the name

Panama-style is the crown and brim shape. It says nothing about origin. This hat was woven in Cebu, in the Philippines, and blocked in Gata de Gorgos. The full origin note.
