    This is a crochet hand woven Cuenca hat! Still a genuine panama hat but with a big difference in the way it was stitched together. Made of the same type of straw of the famous "Panama hats" (Paja Toquilla). These hats are woven with different coloration's of dyed straw that gives the hat a nice and colorful touch. Very durable straw very resistant to rolling or crushing for the kind of crochet stitch pattern this hat uses 4 times more straw then any other panama hat!

Cuenca Grade 4 - Similar to a Montecristi Fino Grade type of weavePlain rounded top

    Snap brim on the front causing the brim to tip downward slightly and upward in the back just a little.

    Beyond Serious... Sun Protection: Larger brims tend to start looking more western, which is great for Texas! Or a Texan at heart! Large brims tend to tip downward just a bit in the front and back because of their weight and can be a little floppy in the wind. If you add a curl to the edge of the brim it will hold its shape much better. Even if it is just a small curled edge it will give it much more rigidness.

    Brim size is a hard thing to recommend because many factors play a part in your selection, such as where you live and the culture, in addition to your personal preferences.

    Serious Sun Protection and Serious Style! Larger Than Standard Brims: I would say this brim will give 150% coverage! There is a charge on larger than standard brims. This is due to the time it takes the weaver to extend the brim and he will ask a bit more for his work. (Price difference is already reflected in the price shown)

    We need time to make this hat for you, it will have to be specially woven since we almost never have this hat in stock, (unless you are in the stock section) it will be custom made! You will need to be very patient for this one.

    Each Panama hat comes with one hat band of your choice, but you may want to include a few extra hat bands- a quick way to change the personality of your Panama hat!

    Each and every Panama hat we sell is handmade right here in Ecuador, so no two hats are exactly alike.
