American Straw Hats are double lacquered and double-pressed to provide unmatched durability and resistance to the elements as well as ensure that your custom shape stays sharp-looking and long-lasting.

American Hat Company’s proprietary petroleum lacquer formula allows the straw hats to be steamed and shaped without hurting the hat and still providing the same level of quality and durability that they are known for. 

Hat shapes vary from location, lifestyle, and personal preference. We still shape hats by hand in order to meet your custom desires, but also have a few pre-creased styles if you prefer.
