Why Mens Straw Hats
If you’re looking for a straw hat it’s because you’re versatile, and you need something equally as flexible and accommodating to add to your wardrobe. Particularly well suited for the summer, straw hats for men, like a fedora hat, boater hat, or just your casual straw hat can brighten your day and keep the feeling of freedom flowing. Whether a sleek design or a wider-brimmed stunner, the careful patterns and lightweight build make straw the ideal material for your July heaters.
The thing is, straw hats have been around for eons. In maybe an even more intriguing twist, the hat styles haven’t changed a whole lot between then and now. Of course, when you put your new straw boater hat, or your men’s golf straw hat on your head you aren’t harkening back to another era, but each piece of straw tells a story, much like the history of straw hats.
While straw hats range in size and shape, a popular form is that of wide-brimmed hats. Floppy hats and straw fedora hats have adapted to today’s modern wearer, blending seamlessly in with a casual floral-print shirt or summer dress. So, despite the ancient history of the straw hat, you can rest assured that whatever design you decide upon will offer a truly modern take on a historical classic.
Over the years straw hats for men have evolved depending on the where and how they were made. Today, we see an assortment of different types of straw used to make these summer hats: brimmed hats for men of all sizes, styles, and preferences, like toquilla palm for Panama hats; shantung, raffia, and toyo for today’s classic fedora hat styles. Each straw hat has its own history, its own legend woven into its shape and feel.
