What Are We Looking For

There are certain key features we look for when we are researching for a good beach straw hat for travel.

  1. Easy to pack: This is important, and size is a factor. so if you have a really big straw hat, you can carry it in a suitcase. 
  2. Lightweight: It should not be too heavy, so we can easily pack more than one. 
  3. Looks stylish: Looking nice means your accessories should also be good. Wo, while we don’t go all designer on these straw hats, we still look for good style.
  4. Rigid Brim: All of the hats I am sharing have somewhat rigid brims, in other words they are not floppy. Floppy hats don’t look good unless they are really big.
