One of these is the straw hat, which in one way or another is always on the list of summer trends, ready to accompany us on our adventures on the island, in the city, at the beach, and in the countryside. 

In addition to completing a stylish outfit, the straw hat also has a practical role, as it protects the face from the sun and therefore from sunburn, photoaging, and skin cancer. 

But do you know how to choose the perfect straw hat for you? Here are some useful tips: 

• Make sure the hat fits properly on your head. It shouldn't be too tight or too loose.
• Choose a style that matches your personality and wardrobe. Straw hats are available in various styles, such as the classic Panama, fedora, bohemian, and others.
• Check the quality of the materials and construction. A good straw hat should be well-woven and not have any gaps or weak points.
• Hats made from natural materials like straw and bamboo are often more durable and breathable than synthetic ones.
• Make sure the hat provides enough shade for your face, neck, and ears. Hats with wider brims offer better sun protection.
• Try on the hat to see if it's comfortable for prolonged use. A lightweight and well-ventilated hat is ideal for hot days.
