Our take · Researched, not tested

Black woven straw with a ribbon band. Chic sun cover for city days.

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

Black two-tone straw gives the women's Nero more polish than a typical beach hat. It's soft paper braid straw on a 4 in safari crown, with a 2 3/4 in brim and a 1 in grosgrain ribbon band. Inside is AHM's velcro sweatband, and it's sized SM to XL. Wear it with a white button-down and wide-leg trousers on a sightseeing day.

Margo's tip: Set it crown-down on the table at lunch instead of on a chair, where someone will sit on it.

Questions

How should it fit?

Level on your head, about a finger above your eyebrows, clearing the tops of your ears. Sizes in stock run SM to XL. SM fits heads 21 to 21 7/8 in (54 to 55 cm) on American Hat Makers' chart. Between sizes, size up and add an insert.

Is the Nero 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.

Does it pack flat?

The store doesn't list it as packable, so don't fold it. Folding straw cracks the weave. Wear it when you travel, or set it crown down in the overhead bin.

How do you clean the Nero?

Brush off dust with a soft brush and dab marks with a barely damp cloth. American Hat Makers suggests cornstarch for sweat or grease spots, brushed off after it sits. Never soak straw, and let it dry on its crown.

Can you return it?

Per American Hat Makers, as stated on their site Nov 6, 2026, it offers 90-day easy returns. Policies change, so confirm on the store's page before you order.

Do you sell this hat?

No. American Hat Makers sells it. The store button opens their product page, and we earn a commission if you buy, at no cost to you.
