Straw Fedora

A straw fedora is the summer answer to the felt hat: the same creased crown and pinched front, made to wear in the heat. This one is listed by the supplier in papyrus straw, unisex, in two head sizes, with color options from ivory and khaki to black, gray and red.

Straw Fedora Colors and Bands

Ivory and khaki are the classic summer straws, black and gray dress the hat up for evening, and red is the bold party choice. Some option names suggest a band in a contrasting color; the photos show each combination.

Garden Party and Beach Wedding Fedora Styling

Pair a light straw with a seersucker or linen suit, or with a tea dress and low heels. It fits lawn games, regattas, a vineyard wedding or a Gatsby picnic where boaters and straw fedoras share the crowd. Felt versions for cooler months are in our fedora hats.

Head Sizes Explained

The listing mentions 60 cm, which is the head circumference of size L, not the width of the brim. Measure across your forehead and above your ears to pick between M and L.
