Label is similar to Resistol of that period. Although it does look,like American Hat Co is still in business in Texas….. Still if I was gonna put money on who made a Levis licensed hat for the 1984 Olympics. I’d bet on Garland (Hatco/Resistol/Stetson). Oh… just learned something Resistol was owned by Levi Strauss and Co until 1985The Optimo by Levi's for 1984's Summer Olympic Games in Los Angeles

Very thin and light. Nine to the inch weave, diamond pattern. Probably Shantung or similar paper.

Tip Logo. Check out that tight weave. But I don't think it's any kind of straw. Or hand-made.
