About MeThis yellow men's straw boater hat has a black Petersham ribbon band around the exterior of the crown with a bow at one side.

There is a paper lining inside the top of the crown.

There is a length of cream-coloured net stitched around the interior of the crown to protect hair from the rough straw.
