O & A With WaleStyles: 5525 Gallery and KIJIMA TAKAYUKI Panama Hat
By Adewale Adekanbi
There is a hat trend at the moment, yet finding the right one still feels like a quest. While Pharrell might look cool in his Vivienne Westwood Mountain Hat, we have to be honest, that most of you would not be taken too serious. With summer around the corner, a nice woven straw hat is of course the best choice, as it let’s the air breeze and it is light. Today we come across two beautiful options from 5525gallery and KIJIMA TAKAYUKI. The collaborative Panama hat is very minimal, also skipping the hat band, which we enjoy a lot. Two colors of the hat are now available from United Arrows Men’s store in Tokyo.
