      PRODUCT CARE
      Rituals have a purpose. To care for your Ultrafino hat, follow these simple step-by-step tips:

      1. To maintain its shape, lift the hat using both the front and back brim with both hands. Do not take the hat from the dome.

      2. Avoid hanging the hat always on the same side.

      3. To remove dust, keep the straw elastic or remove small stains from the straw, apply PAUL LASHTON STRAW HAT CLEANING KIT on the affected area. Avoiding the engraved gold Ultrafino logo.

      4. If the hat gets wet, dab it with a soft cloth and let it dry in a ventilated place away from direct light and heat, for better protection of your Panama hat add PAUL LASHTON STRAW HAT REPELLENT KIT.

      5. If the hat is rollable, do not leave it folded for more than 48 hours. Keep the hat away from direct light, humidity, and heat.

      6. If you need to re-shape or to preserve the shape of the Panama straw hat use PAUL LASHTON PREMIUM STRAW HAT STIFFENER KIT.

      Balboa - Just like Rocky this is winner

      I love this hat in hot weather. It help keep my head cool and it looks cool. The lighter color goes perfectly with anything. I dropped into the store when on a trip to Seattle and was welcomed with awesome service. I highly recommend this store to anyone looking for that perfect Panama Hat. The owners are from Ecuador and have a good selection.

      Nice hat, mediocre sizing

      Very nice looking hat but size is slightly off. I was concerned that the correct size might be a little small, but it was a shade to big. I just placed a piece of felt under the inside band and the fit was fine.
