How to Buy, Care and Clean an Ultrafino Panama Hats

March 23, 2009

Fedora Bugatti Ultrafino Montecristi panama hat can be passed on to your son and grandson if you care for them properly. Here are some tips on making sure yours stays in great condition.

 Only buy a panama hat with a sweatband, which helps keep your hat in place and prevents it from stretching out. It also prevents it from scratching your forehead.

  • Don’t wear it in the rain; water can cause the straw to lose its shape.
  • Only handle the hat by its brim.
  • When resting your hat on a table, rest it on its crown (upside down), rather than its brim. As well, when hanging it up, make sure the peg rests on the sweatband, not the straw.
  • To clean it, simply use a soft bristled brush.
  • When you’re not wearing it, store it in its box or in a dry, cool place.

While following the proper maintenance steps of caring for your hat can help it last for generations to come, purchasing a high quality hat helps increase its longevity. As aforementioned, Ultrafino Montecristi Panama Hats are made of toquilla straw, and the Ecuadorian weaving process is extremely laborious. Each Ultrafino panama hat is made with great care and by hand, using no mechanical implements. This ensures that every panama hat with extreme attention to detail, and that every one is unique. Make sure to treat yourself to the best hat on the market. Ultrafino Panama Hat only offers genuine panama hats, to ensure that any one you choose — whether it’s one of the aforementioned five or any other in Ultrafino Panama hat Collection – is handcrafted with the utmost care. Now’s your chance to look like a legend.

Bogart Panama hat By Ultrafino Panama Hat

 I recently purchased a fine hat, the Bogart Teardrop, ultrafinopanamahat.com for my trip to Central and South America.  I ordered it less than 10 days before my scheduled departure and was glad to have received it the day before I left.  It fit perfectly and kept my head covered and cooler in the blazing hot sun (about 10 degrees north of the equator).  Here I am in the Miraflores Locks of the Panama Canal waiting to make full transit from the Caribbean Sea to the Pacific Ocean.  As head coverings go, life is too short to limit one’s self to the style of a baseball cap.  I look forward to enjoying this hat this summer around town and at the beachI’m really glad I cam across your website.  By the way, this style of hat was much cheaper and of superior quality compared to hats being sold in and around Panama.  Thanks again.

Fedora Gatby Ultrafino Panama Hat

When President Theodore Roosevelt arrived at the Panama Canal inauguration in 1906 handsomely clad in a “refined Homburg made of fine straw”-he had no idea what an impact his casual fashion statement would make. The new look immediately brought on a series of postcards and photographs that quickly circulated the globe. And ever since its first presidential debut the hat, which was made in Ecuador, was coined the ‘Panama Hats’.

Today, the Panama trend lives on. Its hype in Italy was started by no other than Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi, who looks just as smooth as I imagine Roosevelt did. Surely, after its leadership appearance along with its sex appeal and elegance, the Panama (Ecuadorian Hat) will be spotted in many more fashionable cities of the globe.

Ecuadorian Panama Hats are NOT FROM PANAMA

March 14, 2009

The Design of this legendary Panama hats was for informed by local Ecuadorian Culture and the need and customs of the times. The province of Manabi was the center of trade and social gathering, and therefore, theengine from that port  enhanced of future of comercialization.

Toquilla’ straw hat, like many other 19th and early 20th century South American goods, was shipped first to the Isthmus of Panama before sailing for its final destination. The ‘Fino’ from Montecristi and Jipijapa (Ecuador) adopted then the name of its international point of sale, instead of its real origins’.

It became popular in the United States during the Californina Gold Rush (1848–1855). But it was the picture of President Theodore Roosevelt, who wore that hat during his visit to the Panama Canal construction, which traveled around the world and made it internationally known.

Soon, the legend from Montecristi, the ‘Ultrafino’, the unfairly called ‘Panama’, became the favorite hat of international leaders, politicians and cinema stars. The prince of all straw hats.

Lets spread the word: the finest ‘Toquilla’ straw hats don’t come FROM PANAMA!. They are the achievement of months and months of laborious and intensive work by the hands of expert weavers from Pilé, Montecristi, Jipijapa and Cuenca…. ECUADOR!!!!
