Summer partner lasting 100 years

Founded in 1880 (Meiji 13). "Tanaka Hat Shop" has a history of over 140 years in Kasukabe City, Saitama Prefecture. It is a long-established workshop that continues to make hats tailored to the shape of the Japanese head in this area known as a production center of straw hats from ancient times. While Western brand hats are "oval", Tanaka Hat Shop uses "round" wooden forms that are common among Japanese people. It is hard to hurt your temples and realizes surprisingly comfortable wearing comfort. A traditional technique where craftsmen sew up "Mugiwara Sanada" woven with 7 barley stems in a circle while overlapping them. Hats made of natural materials that grow into an amber color as you use them add a cool dignity to summer attire.

Tanaka Hat Shop

Why "Tanaka Hat Shop" is Chosen | 3 Reasons

0 1

"Wooden Form" for Japanese

Westerners' heads are ovals long in the front and back, but Japanese people have a shape close to a circle with wide temples. Tanaka Hat Shop uses a unique wooden form tailored to the Japanese skeleton, so even if you wear it for a long time, your head does not hurt easily, and there is an outstanding fit.

0 2

Skilled Craftsman's "Overlap Sewing"

"Mugiwara Sanada" woven with 7 barley stems is sewn in layers to draw a circle from the whorl. It is a difficult task to sew a non-stretchable material so that it draws a beautiful curve without becoming flat. The fingertip sense of a craftsman with many years of experience creates a beautiful silhouette.

0 3

"Natural Material" with excellent breathability

Straw is hollow, so it contains a lot of air and has the effect of blocking heat. Also, because it has the property of releasing moisture, the inside of the hat does not get stuffy easily, and you can spend coolly even in the hot and humid summer of Japan.

Editor's Note

📝 User Perspective

I use Tanaka Hat Shop's "Marin", and the biggest impression was that "my head doesn't hurt". Foreign-made boater hats felt tight when worn for a long time, but this one is designed to fit the Japanese head, so it is comfortable even if worn all day. Also, the scent of straw drifts faintly, and it is attractive to feel the season. At first, it is whitish color, but by the time I spend one season, it burns a little and becomes a good color, and I feel attached to it. Kids sizes are also substantial, so it is wonderful to match with parents and children.
