MEN SHANTUNg HATS<br />
Since the first use <strong>of</strong> Shantung (aka Shantung Panama) to make hats, the<br />
material remains widely a mystery. Many people believe that shantung hats<br />
are made <strong>of</strong> natural straw. It is actually made out <strong>of</strong> a high performance<br />
paper which is rolled into a yarn to imitate straw.<br />
Washi literally meaning “Japanese Paper,” became famous worldwide for its<br />
unique characteristics. Washi is thinner and lighter in weight yet stronger<br />
than any other paper.<br />
In the mid-1900’s, natural panama straw became scarce and hat<br />
manufacturer were in desperate need <strong>of</strong> finding a replacement.<br />
Washi was then introduced as an alternative and was perfect for making<br />
hats. Wanting a better name for the hat industry, “Washi” was renamed<br />
to “Shantung Panama”. It quickly became widely accepted because <strong>of</strong> its<br />
similarity in looks to the natural panama straw. It was also very durable,<br />
light weight, and cost effective.<br />
