Hat of the Day!

[litework]

My first Panama. Did quite a bit of research, couldn't afford high end but didn't want Shantung (paper) straw either. This one seems a pretty good choice. Good fit and nice C crown too. Did a little steam work when it arrived (the shippers tried to kill the box but it survived), and found that a wire in the brim really helps with the snap up/down. After only owning fur felt, I'm almost scared to touch this hat haha but it actually seems pretty durable. Feeling pretty blessed to be able to obtain a nice hat like this! The cool weather is still hanging on here in NC but it'll be lovely to wear this with linen suits to Church soon.
