CLASSIC STYLING: The Borges & Scott Teardrop Fedora style is a great variant on the traditional Fedora Panama. It has a slightly lower and wider crown than a traditional fedora – which gives it a more modern style. It also features a “flip brim” which can be shaped down at the front and up at the rear.
LIGHT AND BREATHABLE: Handwoven in Ecuador by skilled craftsmen and women before being checked and finished in the UK. The natural Paja Toquilla straw used in this traditional Panama results in an unsurpassably light and breathable hat.
ALL DAY COMFORT: Premium quality inner sweatband ensures a comfortable fit and wicks away sweat.
Very lightweight and breathable hat. Includes full care instructions. Available in a range of color options. From traditional white with a black band to a patriotic red, white and blue ribbon option.

If you are not sure what your hat size is, please follow these simple instructions to find your size.
Measure your head at the level you would want the hat to sit at when you are wearing it. This can vary a little according to your personal preference, but normally it would be across the middle of the forehead, pass a thumb’s width above your ears and around the widest part of the back of your head.
Use a tape measure or a piece of string to find your size in centimetres.
Once you have the measurement in centimetres, this should be the hat size for you. You may wish to move up or down one size if you prefer a particularly loose or tight fit.

Reviews from our customers
Difficult to get the right size without trying and I live a long way from any shops, Got it wrong by one 1cm but the free return and exchange for free works well I now have a very smart Panama hat. Good service
Shipped quickly. Fits well. Quality seems good and as I expected. Thinking of ordering a second in another color.
I’m a big Borges and Scott fan and own a few felt teardrop fedoras which fit perfectly, are extraordinarily durable, recovering quickly from raindrops,dust or squashing. And very good value for the quality
This Panama perhaps wasn’t quite the right style for me as its silhouette isn’t quite as crisp as the felt ones I’m used to. The brim is wider. That said, it is of very high quality, has earned several compliments on the two occasions it’s been worn and seems quite durable too
Great fit, light, structured, perfect
Very pleased with my purchase. Beautifully made and excellent quality.
