Our take · Researched, not tested

Ivory toyo straw with a downturned brim and a classic bow.

By Margo Lane, straw and sun hats desk Pen name, fact-checked by our team

A downturned brim tips the shade toward your eyes, which is useful on a bright afternoon. The Havana is ivory toyo straw with a 4 in crown and a 2 1/2 in brim that angles down at the front. Its band is 16-ligne grosgrain ribbon tied in a bow. A Velcro sweatband adjusts the fit, and the hat is imported. Wear it with a guayabera or a linen shirt to an outdoor café or a summer cigar night.

Margo's tip: Shape the downturn gently with your fingers if it flattens, and never with heat.

Questions

Which size of the Havana should I get?

Measure your head where the hat sits and match it to the chart. SM fits heads 21 to 21 7/8 in (54 to 55 cm) on American Hat Makers' chart. XX fits heads 24 3/8 to 24 7/8 in (62 to 63 cm) on American Hat Makers' chart. Between sizes, American Hat Makers says to size up and use the foam insert it includes.

Is the Havana UPF rated?

The listing doesn't state a UPF rating, so don't assume one. Shade depends on the brim and how tight the weave is. Hold it up to a bright light: if light shows through, so does UV.

Can you travel with the Havana?

Wear it on travel days. It isn't listed as packable, so it shouldn't go folded in a suitcase. On a plane, set it crown down in the overhead bin with nothing on top.

Can this straw hat get wet?

A light shower is fine; a soaking can loosen the weave and the shape. If it gets wet, reshape it with your hands and let it dry at room temperature, crown down, away from heat.

What if it doesn't fit?

American Hat Makers states 90-day easy returns (per American Hat Makers, as stated on their site Nov 6, 2026). Check the store's current policy before you buy; its page is the final word.
