This is the best travel Panama I have ever made, with a relaxed and golden disposition. It is rollable, packable and durable beyond any other hat. Its crochet weave has a rugged simplicity, that is matched with a traditional woven brim that snaps back into shape. While retaining the traditional styling of a Panama, it becomes a great everyday hat.
Very similar to the Traveller, it has a slightly wider brim, golden camel colour and a simple leather band. * every hat supports traditional Ecuadorian families * eco-friendly, organic, biodegradable Toquilla straw * 7 cm reinforced crisp brim * genuine handwoven Panama hat * fine crochet crown with traditional cuenca brim * brim is reinforced to hold its lines * chocolate leather band * enamel Truffaux insignia
Oska was great at suggesting hats for me from photos I sent and ultimately I chose the Golden Traveller. More emails went back and forth over sizing and then a very well packed hat travelled halfway round the world to me, arriving completely unscathed by it's trip. I'm delighted with it and with the service I received from Truffaux and would recommend them to anyone looking for a new hat.

Great Hat for Travel!
This hat survived its first airplane/road trip with "flying" colors - got squished a couple times but is no worse for wear. Bought a powerful hat clip for my carry on bag and that really did the trick.

The quality doesn’t change
This one is to be used for the very reason it’s been made. Packed into a suitcase and taken on holiday to the Kimberly next month.

Fabulous Hat for Travel
After talking with Oska, we came to the conclusion that the best hat for me was one that was not yet shown online: the Diamond Traveller. Considering the hat had to travel halfway 'round the world before I got the chance to try it on, it was already well travelled before I opened the box. I had seen the ads for hats that can roll up and fit in a tube, but that was not what I wanted. I was looking for a hat that could endure the inevitable bumps and bruises of long-distance travel and still look good when I return home. I am confident this hat will do just that. It looks polished and sophisticated on and can handle a bit of abuse with the power to bounce back into shape. I loved the personalized service and the confidence that my money was well spent.

Stylish and high quality
I have purchased four (4) hats from Truffaux Emporium this past year, and I am delighted with the quality of the hats I purchased as well as the prompt and safe delivery of my hats (I reside in Viet Nam.) I most recently purchased a Golden Traveler. and I highly recommend this model.
I heartily recommend Truffaux Emporium for Panama hats.
