Raffia straw is made using long palm leaves that are covered with a layer of bast fiber before they unfurl. This protects the leaves from the heat of the sun as they grow – and passes on this quality to the hand-woven or hand-knit raffia fibers used for headwear.
The elegant shape is a stunner: Depending on the occasion or wearer’s preference, the hat can be worn as a fedora or as a wide-brimmed hat. At all times, the design radiates an aura of classic elegance.

Raffia straw, which is derived from tropical African palms, is familiar with hot climates. Young palm fronds are covered with bast fibers that are later separated and dried to produce natural straw. The flexible, light-weight fibers ultimately produce the carefully woven material used for modern headwear.
The design of this high-quality Stetson hat comes from the Australian cattle ranches on which “gamblers” are traditionally worn. The upward-turned brim, which offers great wind and weather protection, is a defining feature of this ultra-stylish, carefully crafted cowboy hat.
