Above is an unboxing video of my most recent acquisition - a Montecristi Panama Hat from PanamaHatsDirect.com. This is a sub-fino grade according to Panama Hats Direct and it was shipped over from Ecuador direct via DHL (cost quite a bit but secure and actually quite fast). This is my first proper Panama hat and it would go in my rotation of hats.
This isn't a review, but just the unboxing and some facts about panama hats in general, like what is a Cuenca over a Montecristi.
I will do a review of it one of these days. But in the meanwhile, do watch this video if you want to.
