Panamas for your next getaway or summer event

HWith the promise of warmer weather on the way and holidays back on the agenda, a good Panama hat should never be far from reach. Snap up one of our Ecuadorian-handcrafted Panamas for excellent sun protection, cool ventilation and an air of effortless elegance – wherever you’re headed.

About our panama collection

Our genuine panamas are skilfully woven by hand in Ecuador (as per tradition) from toquilla palm straw, then blocked and trimmed by our partners in Spain to our exact specifications. It is the finesse and tightness of the weave that determine the quality of a Panama – the finest of which take months of painstaking work. Offered in an unrivalled choice of qualities, our panamas range from our classic trilby and fedora styles to the higher-grade Montecristi and popular Antibes fedora.

About our panama collection

For a Panama hat like no other, we bring you our Ultrafino. Offered through a bespoke service, the Ultrafino is woven in Ecuador to an extraordinary grade of 42 or 45 – sometimes known as ‘Exhibition Grade’ – by one of only a handful of master weavers. It takes staggering dedication and up to 12 months to weave a piece as fine as this. The result is one of the finest Panamas available in the UK and Europe – a hat so feather-light and silky-smooth, it has to be seen to be believed.

All our Ultrafino Panamas remain unfinished pieces, awaiting their finishing touch. We’ll guide you in selecting your crown shape, profile, brim width, ribbon trim and sweatband material. Simply contact us or visit us in store to discuss your requirements.
