Straw Hats

A straw hat is a wide-brimmed sun hat made from straw, designed with the dual purpose of offering both style and protection from the sun’s harmful rays. Straw hats are made from natural materials which offer lightweight breathability for long days in the sun. The wide brim also assists with protecting the neck and shoulders from the sun. Straw hats are ideal for those who love spending time outdoors but are also conscious of the effects it may have on their skin.

Custom straw hats are not only an effective way to promote your brand but also a great way to protect your body while outdoors. Straw hats offer the following benefits:

This is perhaps the biggest benefit to owning a straw hat and by adding your design or logo, wearers will know your brand is health-conscious without compromising on style. Straw hats feature a wide brim which keeps your head, face, shoulders and neck safe from potentially harmful UV rays.

Due to their tightly woven construction, straw hats offer impressive durability. Whether worn while exploring a market, city or on an outdoor adventure, custom straw hats maintain their shape and are the perfect accompaniment for skin protection and style.

If left unprotected, sunlight can wreak havoc on your hair. Prolonged exposure can dry out your hair significantly, causing brittleness, breakage and a dry scalp. This can all be prevented by wearing a breathable, lightweight straw hat.

Many straw hats are made from renewable, natural fibers, offering a far more sustainable and eco-friendly alternative to synthetic headwear. Choosing custom straw hats made from natural materials supports environmentally conscious branding.

Because straw hats are made from natural materials, embroidery is not recommended as stitching can cause damage to the straw fibers. Instead, your logo or design can be applied using a custom patch. Your patch design is added directly onto your custom straw hat with the choice of several styles, such as PVC, rubber and leather patches to make your design stand out.
