Straw hat

What is a "straw hat"?

A straw hat is a headgear made of woven straw or other materials such as raffia or paper. It typically has a wide brim that provides shade and protection from the sun's rays. Straw hats come in various styles and shapes, from the traditional wide-brimmed farmer's hat to the more fashionable fedora or Panama hat. They are often worn during the summer months or in warm climates and can be adorned with ribbons, flowers, or other decorative elements. Some straw hats are also designed for specific activities such as gardening or beach-going, with features like chin straps or adjustable sizing to keep them securely in place.
