Our genuine Panama hats are hand woven in Ecuador before being checked and finished in Bristol, England. Each one is skilfully woven by hand from many thin "iraca" palm fibres. Panama hats are traditionally made in Ecuador and worn all over Latin America. This stylish hat has become known as a "Panama" due to Panama being the main trading hub of 19th century Latin America and their popularity amongst the foreign workers who built the Panama canal.

• Genuine hand woven rollable panama hat - Fedora Shape for men and women - Made from very light and breathable natural Toquilla Straw. This "Premium" hat has a tighter weave than our standard hat - making for an even more flexible and comfortable fit.
• This superior weave hat gives increased flexibility - perfect for regular travellers.
• Comes with information on rolling and care - Black hat band outside and comfort band inside.
• We will gladly exchange your hat for a different size if it turns out to be the wrong one. 
• As all our hats are handmade, the brim size varies slightly but it normally measures between 6 cm and 7.5cm.
• You may also wish to consider our basic Tumia cardboard Panama travel tube or our Tumia balsa wood Panama travel box.

The sizes are in centimetres and based on the circumference of the head passing across the middle of the forehead.
