I love seeing this hat walking down the street. So crisp and sharp, glowing with its luminous handwoven goodness. Each hat takes over a week to weave and is only undertaken by master craftsmen. Each strand is polished by the slow and delicate entwining, creating an exquisite art form from a time long gone. In Hawaii it is hands down our best selling fino hat - superbly crafted in a grade 8 Cuenca weave and dressed with a simple, elegant black band. Traditional and rock-n-roll - a magnificent practical work of art. + genuine handwoven Panama hat + every hat supports traditional Ecuadorian families + ecofriendly, organic, biodegradable Toquilla straw + 5cm short brim - brimlock reinforced to hold the perfect shape. + handwoven herringbone Cuenca weave in grade 8. + medium height Diamond crown (9.5cm). + soft luminous white + black full bow 33mm grosgrain ribbon with truffaux baked enamel badge.
