To determine your hat size, follow these 4 simple steps:
Step 1.
Using either a soft tape measure or a piece of string – Measure the circumference around your head.
Step 2.
The tape should be level, in the centre of your forehead and just above the top of your ears. It is useful to have someone assist in holding the tape which should be adjusted to a comfortable fit and the measurement taken.
Step 3.
Then check our size chart above to determine your size.
Step 4.
If your size falls between two sizes, choose the next size up. You can always attach foam fillers (available for sale) to ensure a snug fit.

Simply Stunning.
Origins of the Panama hat date back to the early 1900. The workers of the Panama Canal would wear these unique hats made by the local villagers in and around Ecuador. These hats were made by generations by the local village folk and their Inca ancestors before them. Unique to Ecuador the Toquilla Palm plant only grows in that high altitude area ( above 4,000 feet ) and the local villagers would strip these plants and spend hours making these hats to keep them protected from the Sun.
In the Early 1900, workers from the Panama Canal took samples of these fine hats to Europe and soon the people of Europe and the West embraced the soft and gentle styles of the Toquilla Palm hat. Soon the Prince of Wales wore one to the races and it then became very fashionable to wear the so called Panama Canal Hats. Van Gogh and Monet immortalized them in to our western culture and now , over 100 years on, they still provide great shade, whilst being light weight and durable. These hats now come in many grades for us to choose from.
The grade greatly depends on how long it takes to make and how thin the Palm Strips are . The finer the grade, the long it takes to hand weave, the softer the hat and the more roll able or crushable it is . Some of the finest grades can take up to 16 days to make and have to be woven in a barrel of water so that they do not break during the weaving process.
