Custom Straw Hat — Corozo Nut with Rib Knit
We supply straw hat to brands, retailers, uniform and promotional programmes, made in Corozo Nut with rib knit for bridal and eveningwear studios. On headwear the specification that decides whether it sells or comes back is foldability without cracking the braid — so that is agreed in writing before bulk, not discovered when the first carton is unpacked. Programmes start at 1000 pieces per style.
The failures here are predictable: colour drift between the approved sample and the bulk trim, or unclear responsibility when a defect shows up after washing. We lock material, construction, measurement and tolerance on a pre-production sample, and prepare GSO conformity with Arabic labelling so the container clears instead of missing the season it was bought for.

Packing, testing and delivery
Pieces are packed to the ratio you specify — by size, by colour or by style set — with barcodes applied where the channel needs them, and shape-protected where the profile cannot be crushed. Test reports for colour fastness to washing, rubbing and light are prepared for the destination market. We ship to Jebel Ali with invoice, packing list and certificate of origin, and keep the approved reference on file so reorders reproduce the same material, the same construction and the same foldability without cracking the braid.
