• The "Haleiwa" Short Brim is one of the most popular styles because of the patterned weave. It's also great for windy days or active lifestyles because the small brim doesn't catch the wind and the adjustable string makes it more secure. You can trim the string to make a smaller bow, which can be worn in the back or on the side.
• Faux Flower Stem can be added for $9-13, Elastic Haku Lei for $16-25 (message me for current availability).
• Handwoven soft papyrus weave with varied hues of beige, grey, white, golden brown, ivory. There are three different tones of weave - "Light" (beige; as shown on the model), "Cool" (a cooler beige almost grayish tone), "Dark" (brown/yellowish tan with thicker pieces of woven grass). If you have a preference, please let me know in the notes section of your order. Variations in the weave, color and measurements do occur.
• Dimensions (approximate): Brim 2-2.5” (let me know if you have a preference of shorter or wider); Crown height 2-2.5”
• XS (52-53cm), S (54-55cm), M (56-57cm), L (58-59cm), XL (60-61cm). Toddlers usually fit XS (can also use string to tighten until they grow into it). See below for more details about sizing/measuring your head.
• If there is a bend in the hat, it can be reshaped by hand or ironed/steamed. This means that it can be packed!
• Traditional lauhala papale cost between $300-$1000 due to the advanced craftsmanship and many hours that it takes to make a single hat. This is an inexpensive alternative that allows more people to enjoy the spirit of Aloha!

SIZING:
In order to encourage customers to measure their head correctly, the customer will be responsible for the return shipping cost if there is a size discrepancy.
Hat Circumference is measured towards the bottom of the crown. The hat tapers a little towards the top of the crown (the part that will fit around the top of your head). Better to size slightly up since the string can be used to make the hat fit tighter.
Please measure your head using the instructions in the listing pictures. The bottom of the hat should rest comfortably about 1/2" above your eyebrows. Keep in mind that thick hair can make the hat rise up/not rest on your head so try not to pull the measuring tape too tight around your head.
