Montecristi Colonial / Grade 18
$180.00
2 labor days
The Colonial model was used by the British Empire during their conquest of Asia and Africa. Nowadays, also known as the Optimo. This is a quality Grade 16 or Fino hat which doubles the weave count of a standard Cuenca hat.
This hat model was probably the first Panama Hat to be used. Still today, this model is very popular around the world and specially within the UK.
The Colonial originated after rolling up a natural - un-blocked - hat for a few times and as a consequence, a line mark was left through out the center of the crown. Nowadays, this style is blocked in this way. Straw color is natural as Montecristi hats are never bleached or tinted.
