How to determine your hat size:

Determining your hat size is quick and easy.

If you have a fitted baseball hat that fits you right, simply use our Size Chart to find your size.

Otherwise, all you need is a tape measure or string that can be measured. Place the tape around your head right above your ear. It should across your mid-forehead, slightly above your ear, completely circling your head, and taut. Take this measurement and refer to our Size Chart to get your hat size.

PRODUCT CARE

To care for your hat, follow these simple 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 KITon 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. 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.

Investing in a hat box for care and storage is a fantastic idea.

A hat box provides a secure and enclosed space, protecting your hats from dust, dirt, and potential damage. This is especially crucial for delicate materials and intricate designs that can easily be marred.

Hats often lose their shape when not stored properly. A hat box helps to maintain the original form, ensuring that your hats look as good as new every time you decide to wear them.

Traveling or storing hats in a crowded closet can lead to accidental crushing. The rigid structure of a hat box provides a protective barrier, preventing any unwanted deformation.
