It was a bleak day when Olney ceased to manufacture straw boaters in England but we are  very pleased to be able to offer these Italian made versions.

They are wonderful robust quality and fit extremely well on the head being slightly deeper than our previous stock.

Inevitably they are considerably more expensive but well worth the price as an indispensable Edwardian item of headwear. These are made in the traditional manner unlike the cheap gondolier cosplay items.

Sizes 56cm -61cm head circumference. Leather band internally. Black Petersham ribbon.
