Ecua-Andino HatsOriginal Panama Hat - Wide Brim - Choose The Band Color - Toquilla Straw - Handmade in Ecuador

The media could not be loaded.  I am impressed by the quality of the Hat, this a very good quality hat, is a piece of art, very well done. The color white is perfect for these sunny days. I ordered size M but they made a mistake and sent me a Large one. When I was ready to return it, I saw in one of the tags an explanation that this hat comes with a very delicate size adjustable sweatband for a customized fit, which I did and now the fit is more perfect. The hat is a soft and stiffer hat, additionally, the wide brim it's just like I wanted to protect my head, neck, and ears. It's very elegant for the beach, a summer wedding or for outside activities. I was a little concerned about the delivery because of the handling but it was delivered with care. I took a short video in order for you guys to see how they delivered. I personally recommend this product 100%.

This is a perfect hat for style and function in the sunny environment. Bought it for my honeymoon trip to Antigua. I have been getting great reviews for it from staff and resort patrons alike. The extra wide brim blends both eccentric style and shade.Make sure to measure your head accurately though, as the first order we got was the wrong size and too large. We had to be thorough when measuring and ensuring it's what I wanted.It's been keeping shape very well, just avoid the occasional tropical storms. It's also somewhat flexible but will most likely crack if you try to fold or roll. I'd highly recommend not putting it in a bag, or getting a dedicated Travel Hat box for it. I just wore it on my head while we traveled to the resort.Overall though, I am extremely happy with the hat!

I need a good sun hat. This is it!!Many people are not aware that Panama Hats are made in Ecuador. They are a TYPE of hat not a country or a source. This one is made by hand, not machine, and is woven tighter than most on the market. It is a bit stiff to hold its shape better. Not floppy . It also has a 3 inch brim to block more sun. Others have 2 inch or 21/2 inch brims and you have to tilt your head down to block more sun. And it's straw color, not white. In this case, it's worth the premium price for a premium hat.

The truth is that it was not what I expected. According to the seller's description, it is "LIGHT AND FLEXIBLE". However the truth is that it looks like a motorcycle helmet. I bought a Panama hat in Cartagena, Colombia, which is really flexible, it adapts to the head and is very comfortable, and it cost me just over $ 20, while this one that I just bought is quite stiff, it does not adapt to the head, and to top it all it cost me almost five times more than the one I bought in Colombia on vacation. On the other hand, the wing came all wavy, I will have to find a way to straighten it, perhaps as the manufacturer suggests using an iron, but how is it possible that something new needs to be adjusted, it is not acceptable to pay so much to receive something that requires repairs. Likewise, the size turned out to be very large, not even with the adhesives that it includes it can fit well. In short a great disappointment.

I've had several Panama hats. Some more "cowboy" and some not. I have a large head I guess, though my dad's was larger. I think I had it measured once as 7 3/4, or possibly 7 5/8's. I ordered this one as XXL, and since it is not a stiff hat, it feels "ok" But it really can't pull down tightly in wind, so it doesn't work well when windy, it flies off.It IS quite soft and finely made. It is also fairly light, which is nice in the heat. All in all, satisfied, though I could wish it were slightly larger.

I've had this hat since late March, 2021. It is quite a nice-looking hat, and gives good protection from the sun. That is why I have refrained from giving it only one star.The black band around the outside of the hat and the black adjustable sweatband inside the hat are not colorfast. About six weeks ago, they began to bleed out onto the white straw. I've tried a couple of things to remove the stains, but nothing has worked. Just be aware of this if you decide to buy this hat.Update: I contacted the seller, and they sent me a new hat immediately! Very nice of them to do that, and the new hat doesn't have the "bleeding" problem.

Beautiful style. Too lightweight. Floppy rather than rigid. Runs large. Extremely thin material. Way too thin. Returned.

Premium quality hat for a reasonable price !Fit was perfect, great value for money.
