The Riviera Panama Hat
Introducing The Riviera – Laird Hatters’ latest addition to our summer collection and a true icon of refined seasonal style. This is not just any Panama hat; it is a genuine Ecuadorian masterpiece, handwoven using the exquisite Tequila weave — a variation of the Brisa style known for its intricate texture, breathability, and durability.
Woven by skilled artisans in Ecuador using traditional methods passed down through generations, The Riviera is made from 100% Toquilla straw – the only straw that qualifies a hat as a true Panama. This high‑grade Brisa weave strikes the perfect balance between lightness and structure, creating a hat that is both elegant and practical. The open, airy weave keeps your head cool in the heat, while the fine craftsmanship gives it the refined look expected of a premium summer accessory.
Hand‑blocked and finished in England by our expert hatters, The Riviera features a classic wide brim and a softly shaped Fedora crown that flatters every face. It’s ideal for coastal escapes, city strolls, summer weddings, and garden parties – wherever the sun calls, The Riviera answers with effortless charm.
With its clean lines, breathable construction, and timeless silhouette, The Riviera is the ultimate Panama hat for the discerning gentleman or stylish lady traveller. It embodies everything a proper Panama should: heritage, lightness, style, and substance.
A high‑summer essential, The Riviera elevates everything from linen tailoring to casual shirts, offering the perfect finishing touch to your warm‑weather wardrobe. Whether you're heading to the Côte d’Azur, lounging in Tuscany, or simply soaking up a London heatwave, this is the hat that completes the look.
Perfectly suited for both men and women, The Riviera is a go‑to accessory for sun‑soaked travel, coastal getaways, and summer celebrations alike. Its crisp silhouette works just as well with relaxed linen shirts and dresses as it does with tailoring, making it a versatile companion for garden parties, weddings, or a stylish stroll through town.
The Riviera also makes a thoughtful and luxurious gift. Whether it’s a birthday, anniversary, or special summer occasion, giving the gift of a genuine Panama hat is a gesture of timeless style and craftsmanship. Presented with care and made to last, The Riviera is more than a hat – it’s a warm‑weather heirloom.
For those seeking a breathable, lightweight, and stylish summer hat that carries both heritage and elegance, The Riviera delivers with quiet confidence and cool sophistication.
