Hold this hat to the light and you will see the many points where light and air can flow evenly through. However this is not a "semi-calado" where the weave is actually woven into the hat with vent holes and a pattern. Rather, this whole hat is what is called locally in Ecuador as a "brisa weave" (windy weave) because air can breathe through due to the openness of the straw patter.
This is in contrast with Montecristi hats which are very tightly woven and have almost air tight weaves. Very lightweight, weighing a total weight of about 100 grams, it is quickly produced and economical. It generally comes standard with a fabric sweat band.
