This deposit secures the commission of a custom Marquez Clásico straw hat, handcrafted using either hand-woven Ecuadorian straw or high-quality Shantung straw.
Each piece is shaped and finished by hand in Los Angeles, combining traditional techniques with refined proportions. Made exclusively for you.
About Our Straw Materials
We work with two distinct straw materials, selected for quality, durability, and finish:
Hand-Woven Ecuadorian Straw
Known for its fine weave, lightness, and breathability. This material is woven by hand using traditional methods, then shaped and finished to create a refined, long-lasting straw hat that wears beautifully over time.
High-Quality Shantung Straw
A structured, durable straw made from natural fibers, valued for its clean appearance, strength, and ability to hold shape. Shantung offers a slightly firmer feel and is ideal for those seeking a crisp, tailored silhouette.
Both options are chosen for longevity and wearability when properly cared for.
