UPDATE: The Merchant Marine Hat collection is in limited supply. If your interested in this style, reach out through my custom Orders Section to see what is available. Patches were collected on my travels in Europe and the US, and the special Florentine straw comes from Italy. This weave is no longer in production, and only a few are left in stock. You can substitute the straw for a different straw. Patches are also limited. But we can find something that might work for what you desire.

The Merchant Marine collection is made from Florentine straw, raffia and fine Parasisal. Each one is trimmed with vintage patches, including merchant marine patches I  collected at markets in Germany and the U.S.  Each hat is unique and the dark blues, are hand dyed. The Florentine straws are from special suppliers in Italy and Germany.  They are indeed a rare species, and won't be around in a few more years.    See the collection in our Selfie Shoot 

Prices start at $250 for raffia (see brown hat above), and $350 for Florentine and Parasisal.

Please note, patches are unique, so some are out of stock.
