Strong, flexible, lightweight koa wood bill construction, finished with three coats of UV resistant marine spar varnish.
Our original Hardwood Hats combine old world craftsmanship, beautiful Hawaiian koa wood and a sense of fun into a unique and practical cap.
Made in our shop on the Big Island of Hawaii in the USA.
*Koa Grade Characteristics:
Figured Koa: color variations ranging from blond, through reddish to brown that run lengthwise with the grain of the wood and appear as ribbons
Curly Koa: compressed waves known as "curl", that run perpendicular to the lengthwise ribbon grain of the wood, and have a three dimensional appearance (additional cost).

Not your normal hat. I saw someone in Kauai with this hat and tried to find one. It wasn't till I got home and looked online to find it is made in Hawaii. Ordered it immediately June 19 and received June 24 to Vancouver WA. I am glad they sell these direct because if they were in a retail in Hawaii it would have been twice the price. Opened the package and immediately got a whiff of wood veneer; like new wood furniture. Fits well and VERY well made. I got the plain black. Am ordering the one with curled wood and Aloha fabric next.

My husband has fallen in love with this hat since first purchased at a golf course in San Diego many years ago. I will continue to purchase them for as long as possible! So many compliments too! He is actually recognized by this hat! The best!

My husband LOVES these hats and is very happy to add the blue one to his collection! They are very well made and people always compliment the hat every time he wears one and ask where he got it. He is glad to show them the label inside the hat and highly recommends them.
