Bleached Panama Hat

A Panama hat in natural tones

The fedora in the borsalino style in Panama, a natural straw enhanced with a black ribbon.

Here is a superb Panama hat that will brighten your sunny days; it is the result of a long drying process in full sun of young palms from the Carludivia Palmita. It is exclusively this straw that provides such exceptional structure.

This Panama hat by Ecua-Andino comes directly from Ecuador, from the coastal region of Simon Bolivar.
Ecua-Andino has been offering Panama hats for 20 years and has developed a community project in Ecuador with local villagers. This project aims to revive the weaving and ethical trade of hats. Since then, the villages have come back to life, traditions are being passed on and above all brought up to date.
In July 2010, you may have seen a television report about Dona Rosa (Mrs. Rosa Salinas) and the Sig-Sig Cooperative: "Asociacion de Señoras tejedoras del Sig-Sig (Association of "women weavers" of Sig-Sig). These are of course the artisans who weave the Ecua-Andino Panamas.
