FAQs

How should I measure my head for this hat?

Measure the circumference of your head approximately 1 cm above your ears, ensuring the tape measure stays level.

Is this hat foldable?

No, this is a structured straw hat and should not be folded or rolled, as it will permanently damage the weave.

Can I wear this in the rain?

It is not recommended. Paja toquilla straw is porous and will absorb water, which can cause warping or staining.

What is the brim width?

The brim width is approximately 6 cm.

How do I clean the grosgrain ribbon?

Use a slightly damp cloth to gently spot-clean the ribbon, ensuring no moisture touches the straw.

Troubleshooting

Hat feels too loose or tight

Use adhesive felt hat sizing tape inside the inner sweatband to adjust the fit by half a size.

Straw looks dry or brittle

Keep the hat in a environment with moderate humidity and avoid prolonged direct sun exposure when not being worn.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight and breathable material perfect for hot weather
  • Timeless design that complements a sophisticated wardrobe
  • High-quality construction using traditional weaving techniques
  • Provides ample shade with a versatile medium brim

Cons

  • Requires careful storage to prevent straw deformation
  • Not water-resistant; exposure to rain can damage the material
  • Higher maintenance compared to synthetic hat alternatives

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Borsalino, avoid handling the hat by the crown, as repeated pinching can cause the straw to crack. Instead, grasp it by the brim. When not in use, store the hat in a cool, dry place, ideally on a hat stand or in a hat box to maintain its shape. If the hat gets dirty, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dust. Do not attempt to wash the hat with water or chemicals. If it loses its stiffness over time, consult a professional hat renovator, as specialized steaming is required to reshape the paja toquilla.
