Handwoven from premium Panama Quito straw, this hat provides a lightweight and breathable experience, making it perfect for summer events or travel.

FAQs

Can I roll this hat for travel?

No. The Panama Quito straw is structured and must not be rolled or crushed, as it will break the weave and ruin the hat's shape.

How do I ensure the correct fit?

Measure the circumference of your head just above the ears and across the forehead to compare with Borsalino's standard sizing guide.

Is the hat waterproof?

No, it is made of natural straw and should be kept away from heavy rain or excessive moisture to prevent damage.

What is the ribbon width?

The hat features a classic 3 cm grosgrain ribbon hatband.

What kind of straw is used?

The hat is crafted from high-quality toquilla straw, known for its durability and fine handwoven finish.

Troubleshooting

Visible dust or debris on the straw

Use a soft garment brush and gently wipe the hat in the direction of the weave to avoid damaging the fibers.

Hat shape looks slightly distorted

Ensure it is stored in a proper hatbox. If deformation persists, consult a professional milliner to professionally steam and reshape the straw.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Expert craftsmanship with authentic handwoven straw
Sophisticated and timeless aesthetic suitable for formal summer events
Excellent breathability for comfort in high temperatures
Lightweight construction ensures comfortable all-day wear

Cons

Not packable; rolling or crushing will permanently damage the weave
Requires a dedicated hatbox for safe storage and transport
Natural straw material is sensitive to moisture and needs careful handling

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Unlike modern synthetic hats, the Borsalino Federico does not require any 'setup' beyond ensuring the correct fit for your head size. Compatibility-wise, it pairs best with tailored linen suits, cotton chinos, or light summer blazers.

Care Instructions:

Storage: Always store in a dedicated, rigid hatbox when not in use to maintain the hat's shape.
Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dust from the straw surface in the direction of the weave.
Handling: Always pick up the hat by the brim or the crown with clean hands, avoiding heavy pressure on the center dent.
Moisture: If the hat gets wet, allow it to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent cracking or warping.
