Full details

FAQs

Can I wear this hat in the rain?

No. Panama straw is a natural fiber and should be kept away from water and high humidity to prevent swelling or loss of shape.

How do I store my Panama hat?

Store it in a dedicated hat box in a cool, dry place. Avoid hanging it on a peg for long periods as this can distort the crown.

Is this hat foldable for travel?

No, the Federico Panama features a stiffened, structured brim that should not be folded or rolled.

What is the brim width?

The brim width is approximately 6 cm, providing a balanced, medium profile.

How should I hold the hat?

Always handle the hat by the brim to avoid pinching or cracking the straw on the crown.

Does the hat come in different head sizes?

Yes, Borsalino offers various sizes (e.g., 56 cm to 59 cm) to ensure a proper fit.

Troubleshooting

Hat feels slightly too tight or loose

Use cork hat reducers under the inner sweatband to adjust the fit, or seek a professional hatter for a steam-stretch adjustment.

Visible dust or lint on the surface

Use a soft-bristled clothes brush and gently brush with the grain of the straw to remove surface debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Borsalino, proper storage is essential. Keep the hat in a cool, dry environment, preferably in a hat box, to prevent the natural fibers from becoming brittle or misshapen. If the hat comes into contact with light moisture, allow it to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, which can cause the straw to crack. Compatibility is universal across most formal and semi-formal summer wardrobes; it pairs exceptionally well with cotton, linen, and lightweight wool textures. Do not attempt to reshape the brim yourself, as the stiffening agents are designed for a professional finish that can be damaged by manual adjustment.
