Our take · Researched, not tested

Cream fedora with brass conchos and a chin cord for breezy brunches.

Cream and brass are a pretty pairing, and the women's Milan puts them together on a fedora made from a paper and cotton blend with vented canvas. The crown measures 4 in and the brim 2 1/2 in, small enough for a crowded farmers market. An embossed faux leather band holds brass conchos, an adjustable chin cord rides along, and the sweatband is elastic. AHM adds a protective sealant to help hold the shape. Sizes MD up past XX.

Margo's tip: Keep it away from heat between wears, so the brim and crown keep their lines.

Great for

  • Farmers markets and outdoor brunches
  • Gold and brass jewelry
  • Breezy days with the chin cord

Skip it if

  • You need a hat that packs flat: the store doesn't list it as packable
  • You want a stated UPF rating: this listing doesn't give one
  • You want maximum shade: the brim is 2 1/2 in
  • You want a cold-weather hat: look at felt

Questions

Which size of the Milan should I get?
Measure your head where the hat sits and match it to the chart. MD fits heads 22 to 22 3/4 in (56 to 57 cm) on American Hat Makers' chart. 3X fits heads 25 to 25 5/8 in (64 to 65 cm) on American Hat Makers' chart. Between sizes, American Hat Makers says to size up and use the foam insert it includes.
Is the Milan 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 Milan?
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.
