As the name suggests, the Straw hat is made from straw, or similar material is taken from various kinds of plants or even produced synthetically. There are several varieties of straw hats distinguishable from the hat’s shape or the material used in its making. The hats are great for summer or hot and sunny day as it gives great sun-protection and the weaving is highly breathable so the hat can be worn for long hours.
Many cultures have their traditional straw hats, such as the Ecuadorian Toquilla hat, national heritage and can cost up to $10000 if it passes through some traditional processes. Therefore, instead of being just a hat type, the Straw hat is a whole category of hats, including Conical Asian Hats, Leg Horn Hat, Kettle brim Hat, and so on.
