The on-trend knitted boater hat, which is so popular this season, will perfectly complement your summer look! It will not be hot and at the same time it will perfectly protect you from the sunlight, and let the air pass through.
The hat made of natural raffia is not afraid to be creased. It is soft in its structure, but holds its shape as well as a regular straw! Therefore, you can easily take it with you on vacation!
Raffia products easily restore their original shape after steam treatment. Dirt can be easily removed with a wet sponge. In critical cases, you can even hand wash in cool water. Of course, no rubbing or wringing is allowed. Just blot the moisture with a towel and put the hat on the bottle to dry.
