A palm leaf cowboy hat is worth the wait. Palm will naturally wick heat and sweat away from your head and dissipate it through the top of the hat, allowing it to keep you cooler than any other material. Palm hats are incredibly durable and hold their shape in almost all conditions. They can get wet without falling apart so they are the perfect choice for boating, poolside or at an outdoor festival. In fact palm likes to be wet now and then. You can spray it down to clean the dust off. The weave is tight, providing 100% UV protection. And they lend themselves to an amazing array of styles and colors.
