Excellent Product I give my hats fairly hard wear - they are work hats first and foremost, since I work right much outdoors doing garden design, installation, and maintenance. These hold up right well, and keep me protected from the sun with their tight weave. (Dermatologists have noted the hats with approval.) I have been wearing them so long they have become kind of a trade-mark. Excellent product.

Make sure who you are dealing with Just a note to let you know that Casey Dalzell with "Panama Hats Direct is a joy to deal with and a truly honest person. I own over thirty hats and will not deal with any other company or person for my panama's. A word of caution, there are others trying to make you believe they are the "Panama Hat Direct Co." by misspelling the name and using it as theirs or by using the words in front of their Mall Company. DON'T BE FOOLED. Casey is a honorable man, his prices are very fair and he treats the artisans and customers honestly. Truly none better.

My personal experience with Panama Hats Direct was great ! There isn’t much to say but Thanks, when you’ve received a real hand made quality product, priced properly, delivered in a reasonable period of time. The customer service support has been excellent too. So, I am glad to recommend the Panama Hats Direct to anyone who’s interested in a real Panama Hat. So yes, I’m saying - Thank you very much !

My second hat from Panama Hats Directn Just received my second hat in about 10 years from Panama Hats Direct. Ten years shows the quality, and longevity of their hats and how happy I am to return to the same makers. This latest hat had to be made bespoke due to my in-between-headsize; well worth the little extra time to wait for its arrival.

Great hats Great hats; I've now had three with one lost and one worn out (which was a cheaper version). Now enjoying a Fedora fine weave with extra brim; looks cool with excellent sun protection. One order was slow to ship but response to my query was good. All delivered in useful packaging which owner should keep for travelling if not wearing. Enjoy.
