The Eric Javits Champ is a luxury designer hat crafted from patented squishee® straw. Twenty years ago, Eric noticed a lack of high-quality, women's designer visors. In his drive to be an industry innovator, he was inspired to design a new kind of visor that was more attractive, durable, and of superior quality to all others. Why Choose the Champ? Squishee® is Eric Javits' patented man-made material incorporating recycled fibers. It looks and feels like natural raffia straw but is far more durable — it won't crack, splinter, or melt when wet. Independently tested and awarded the highest UPF 50+ rating for superior sun protection. Lightweight, packable, and built to last season after season.
