I’ve purchased a few EJ

"I’ve purchased a few EJ hats and this one became one of my favorites. It’s an elegant summer hat with a wide brim which gives a good coverage and protects from the sun. And it’s packable! It’s very important for me because I travel a few times per year and I love wearing hats on my trips."

Beautiful hat

"My first Eric Javits hat is over 25 years old and is now being relegated to the “beach only” category after many years of service and still holding up. Love the new Francoise. An elegant design that I look forward to wearing this Summer."
