High-quality White Panama Hat | Black Band - Today Only [G1BdFjVZ]

White Panama Hat, Genuine & Exclusive | Classic Fedora Hat | Handwoven in Ecuador

The Panama hat is one of the world’s most iconic accessories — yet its origins are often misunderstood. Despite its name, the Panama hat has always been crafted in Ecuador, where skilled artisans have handwoven these fine hats for centuries using Carludovica Palmata straw. The name "Panama hat" became popular when these Ecuadorian hats were shipped through Panama and famously worn by workers and even President Theodore Roosevelt during the construction of the Panama Canal, capturing the world’s attention.

At LATITUDE ZERO®, we honor this rich heritage by working directly with Ecuadorian women artisans who handweave each hat with care, following techniques passed down for generations. We are committed to fair trade practices, ensuring that every artisan receives fair compensation and works in conditions that respect both people and the planet. Our production follows sustainable methods, protecting natural resources and supporting local communities.

Each hat features our exclusive hand-carved bronze emblem, a subtle mark of authenticity and craftsmanship, inspired by Ecuador’s location on the equator — the Latitude Zero of the world. A piece of history, woven by hand, made to last.
