Plaited or Strip-Assembled Hat Shapes (Unblocked, Unlined)

Hat shapes constructed by plaiting or assembling strips of any material — straw, grass, bark, synthetic ribbon, or other substrates — occupy a distinct pre-finished classification when they arrive without a made brim, lining, or trim. The 'any material' scope is broad, but the unblocked and unfinished condition is the critical classification gate: the same plaited shape, once blocked or lined, moves to a finished-hat heading. Sourcing from regions with traditional plaiting industries means origin documentation and material declarations are essential for accurate entry.
