Our take · Researched, not tested

Natural Panama straw with a twine-trimmed ribbon, ready for a seaside lunch.

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

A compact Panama with a little detail on the band makes an easy summer hat for travel. The women's Quito is genuine Panama in natural, shaped with a C crown 4 1/4 in high and a 2 3/4 in brim. The trim is a 2 in ribbon finished with a cross piece and twine overlay. An adjustable velcro sweatband sits inside, and it comes in SM, MD and XL. Pair it with a striped dress or white linen.

Margo's tip: A 2 3/4 in brim gives your face light shade. On long beach days, add sunglasses and sunscreen.

Questions

Which size of the Quito 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. XL fits heads 23 5/8 to 24 1/4 in (60 to 61 cm) on American Hat Makers' chart. Between sizes, American Hat Makers says to size up and use the foam insert it includes.

Is the Quito 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 Quito?

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.
