Chiapaneco Chic Sand

Product Description:

Toquilla straw is the best quality straw in the world for hats. Woven from fibres from a palm tree from the Ecuadorian Coast and imported from Montecristi Ecuador. The original PANAMA style hat from Ecuador, toquilla is on the representative Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity list from the UNESCO.

The Chiapaneco Chic Collection uses handmade woven cotton bands in geometric figures made by Chiapaneco artisans from San Cristobal de Las Casas. These bands are sewn on delicately with a double stitch to each hat and include a pom pom accessory on the side. All of our hats are lined with a vinyl on the inside crown and have a metal plaque with our brand. Each band is a unique one of a kind piece and can not be repeated. This color is called ‘sand’ or ‘arena’ in Spanish. This is the natural color of the toquilla straw.
