Artesano Cajas Wide Brim Hat - Natural

The Cajas Hat by Artesano is a classic Panama-style hat, handwoven from natural straw and designed with a clean, structured silhouette. It features a coordinating cord of hand-carved tagua beads—sustainably sourced and dyed to match—for a subtle yet distinctive finish. Both functional and refined, it’s a polished take on everyday sun protection.

WEARING
Use the brim when removing or putting on your hat and avoid crushing the hat. Inside, there is an adjustable band sewn into the inner circumference of the hat, you can make the size up to 1 size smaller using this band.

CLEANING & RESHAPING
Remove stains or spots with a damp cloth and soap dabbing the stain spot with the cloth. Repeat this process with a damp cloth without soap and let air dry. If the hat or bag has been left on a humid space this may distort the straw. Lay a damp cloth or t-shirt on the part that needs to be reshaped and pass a warm iron over it to reshape it. This method can be used to manipulate the shape of the brim if you prefer it to flip up or down, as well.

STORING
We recommend you store your hat or bag in a cool, dry place on a shelf away from direct sunlight, otherwise this might discolor or distort the shape. AVOID CONTACT WITH WATER OR MOISTURE and away from excess heat as straw may become brittle and crack. Avoid leaving inside your car.
