Panador’s Maestro Outback is a beautiful hat.

The Panador Maestro Panama Hat Collection

Our collection of fine Maestro Panama hats is finished by Christys' of London, one of the most revered names in the hat industry. Christys' was established in 1773 and brings over two centuries of hat-making heritage to modern millinery. A very tight, fine weave marks the Maestro Panama hats.

These Panama hats are hand-picked in Ecuador for their high-quality weave before they are transported to the UK and treated with Christys' specialized finishing process. Modern updates to classic Panama hat styles include a Teflon coating that provides resistance to stains and water and an interior covered-crown tip that helps the Maestro Panama hat keep its shape.

The Outback Style

The Outback Panama hat is also known as the Aussie. It is a variation on the fedora, the oldest and most popular style of Panama hat, but an Outback always features a downward sloping brim in the back. It sports a teardrop-shaped crown pinched at the front and has a wide brim that dips slightly over the eyes.

The Outback style is perhaps best known for its iconic role as the hat of Indiana Jones.

With their generous brim, Outback-styled Panama hats are perfect for the great outdoors. Whether you’re catching crocs or tending to those tomatoes in the yard, the utility of this Panama hat will impress you.
