Our Xiabu Breathable Sun Hat starts with high-quality Wanzai ramie, a natural fiber known as "China Grass" with millenniums of cultivation history. The production process strictly follows time-honored steps: fresh ramie stalks are stripped of their outer skin, then undergo "dew bleaching" – a natural process where ramie fibers absorb morning dew and ferment to remove impurities, keeping the fiber white and soft without any chemical additives. Next, artisans hand-spin the treated ramie into fine, even yarns, which are then woven into dense yet breathable Xiabu fabric on traditional wooden looms.
The hat features a classic wide-brim design (brim width 8cm) that effectively shades the face, ears and neck, while the crown (depth 12cm) fits most adult head circumferences (56-58cm) and is equipped with an adjustable cotton drawstring inside for a customized fit. The hat body is made of double-layered Xiabu fabric – the outer layer retains the natural texture of hand-woven Xiabu, with subtle woven patterns, and the inner layer is lined with soft ramie gauze for added comfort. It comes in three natural tones: original ivory white, light indigo (dyed with plant-based indigo) and soft beige (dyed with tea extract), all safe and non-toxic. Every hat is inspected by our national-level Xiabu weaving inheritors to ensure it meets the standards of intangible cultural heritage crafts.
Authentic Intangible Heritage Craftsmanship: Each sun hat is hand-woven by artisans proficient in the "Wanzai Xiabu Weaving Technique", with no machine substitution in core processes like ramie spinning and fabric weaving, making every hat a unique cultural work.
100% Natural & Eco-Friendly Materials: The hat body is made of pure ramie fiber, a renewable resource; the dyeing and processing use only natural methods, no synthetic chemicals, which is harmless to human skin and the environment.
Superior Breathability: Xiabu fabric has natural micro-pores, allowing air to circulate freely. Even in hot weather, it can quickly discharge heat and moisture from the head, avoiding stuffiness and sweat accumulation.
Effective UV Protection: The dense hand-woven structure of Xiabu can block 90% of UVA and UVB rays (tested to meet UPF 50+ standards), providing reliable sun protection without compromising breathability.
Durable & Shape-Retaining: Hand-spun ramie yarns have strong toughness, and the double-layered weaving makes the hat body sturdy. It is not easy to deform even after repeated folding and wearing, and becomes softer with each wash.
UV Protection for Outdoor Activities: Whether it's hiking, camping, beach trips or gardening, the wide brim and UV-resistant Xiabu fabric can effectively shield the head and face from strong sunlight, preventing sunburn.
Cooling & Breathable for Daily Wear: When commuting, shopping or walking in the park, the breathable Xiabu fabric keeps the head cool, avoiding the discomfort of sweating and stuffiness caused by ordinary plastic or cotton sun hats.
Adjustable Fit for Comfort: The built-in drawstring allows users to adjust the hat circumference according to their head size, ensuring it fits firmly and doesn't fall off during outdoor sports.
Cultural Decoration for Outfits: The natural texture of Xiabu and simple color matching make the hat a stylish accessory that complements casual outfits like dresses, T-shirts and shorts, adding an artistic touch.
Lightweight & Portable: Weighing only 80g, the hat can be folded into a small size and put into a handbag or backpack, easy to carry when going out.
Cultural Uniqueness: Unlike mass-produced plastic or ordinary cotton sun hats, our product carries the 1,600-year heritage of Xiabu weaving, giving it cultural value that ordinary sun hats lack, and is also a unique cultural souvenir.
Better Breathability Than Synthetic Hats: Compared with polyester or nylon sun hats, Xiabu sun hats have natural air permeability, which can solve the problem of stuffiness and sweat, and won't cause skin irritation due to poor air circulation.
Stronger UV Protection Than Ordinary Cotton Hats: The dense hand-woven structure of Xiabu provides higher UV blocking rate (UPF 50+) than ordinary cotton hats (usually UPF 15-20), and is more durable, not easy to lose protection after washing.
Eco-Friendly & Sustainable: The use of natural ramie fiber and plant dyes reduces environmental pollution; the hat is biodegradable after being discarded, unlike synthetic hats which take hundreds of years to decompose.
Long-Lasting Use Value: With proper care, the hat can be used for 2-3 years. The more it is washed, the softer the Xiabu fabric becomes, and the color will not fade easily, maintaining its aesthetic and practical value.
Outdoor Sports Scenarios: Suitable for hiking, camping, mountaineering, cycling, fishing and other outdoor activities, providing sun protection and cooling.
Daily Life Scenarios: Perfect for commuting to work, going to the supermarket, walking the dog, or having a picnic in the park, adding comfort and style to daily wear.
Beach & Vacation Scenarios: Ideal for beach trips, island vacations or poolside leisure, as it is waterproof and quick-drying, and can be easily cleaned after getting wet.
Cultural & Tourism Scenarios: A must-have souvenir for tourists visiting cultural heritage sites, and also a high-quality product for cultural souvenir shops and eco-friendly boutiques.
Gifting Scenarios: Suitable as a gift for friends and family who love outdoor activities, eco-friendly products or cultural crafts, especially for festivals like Christmas, Father's Day and Mother's Day.
