Panama Hats are real made in Ecuador
Toquilla Straw hats, mistakenly know as “Panama Hats” are made entirely by Ecuadorian hands. They are the result of an ancient technique, originated in the coast of Ecuador which time has converted them into a significant part of our cultural identity.
Straw hats woven in Ecuador, like many other 19th and early 20th century South American goods, were shipped first to the Isthmus of Panama before sailing for their destinations in
Asia, the rest of the Americas and Europe, subsequently acquiring a name that reflected their point of international sale, "Panama hats", rather than their place of domestic origin Legend tells that when President Theodore Roosevelt visited the canal in 1906, he immediately fell in love with the hat, and the world famous pictures of him wearing it. Back in the States, newspapers show him wearing a "Panama Hat" while at the Canal. Worldwide sales skyrocket, and the rest is history...
Ecuadorian Toquilla Straw Hats has been passed down for generations and continues to receive World attention as on 2012 UNESCO named the art of weaving a genuine Panama hat a Cultural Human World’s Heritage. The Panama hat remains in fashion today and they are continually worn by numerous world figures like movie
actors, painters, writers, musicians, intellectuals, etc.
