Paper Visor

USD 44USD 38USD only · tax shown at checkout

The struck price is the lowest price this hat was sold at in the thirty days before the reduction.

An open-crown visor with an adjustable cotton band. Sixty-two grams. Because there is no crown, the top of your head is uncovered — an obvious point, but one worth stating plainly rather than leaving you to discover it.

How open the weave is

Even braid across the brim — the crown is open, so nothing covers the top of the head.

Braid woven in Zhejiang, China · hand-blocked in Gata de Gorgos, Spain.

Head circumference

Measure just above the ears, level across the forehead. Between two ranges, take the larger.

Adding counts the badge up in the header. Nothing opens over the page and nothing is charged until you review the order.

Straw is a plant

Four things
this hat does.

Printed before you buy, not after you complain. A hat that cannot carry all four lines does not go on sale here.

  • Cracking

    Paper straw does not so much crack as crease. A hard fold leaves a permanent line down the twist.

  • Fading

    It pales noticeably after a full summer outdoors, faster than wheat or rye.

  • Reshaping

    Humidity softens it. Once soft it takes a new shape easily and keeps it — including shapes you did not want.

  • Weave gaps

    Even, regular gaps run between the twists. Backlit, they read as thin bright lines across the whole crown.

Care

  • Keep it out of dry heat

    Never leave it in a parked car or against a radiator. Dry heat is what makes straw crack.

  • Mist, do not soak

    A light mist of water two or three times a season keeps the fibres supple. Do not soak it.

  • Reshaping

    Mist lightly, press flat between two cloths and leave it on a flat surface overnight.

  • Storage

    Store it upside down on its crown, or in a hat box. Never stack anything on the brim.
