Artisan Handwoven Iraca Palm Fino Fedora Panama Hats
Ethically and Sustainably sourced from Colombian Artisan and Indigenous women-owned businesses
**STOCK ONLY AVAILABLE AT SOUTH MELBOURNE MARKET UNTIL 2 FEB 2025**
Known as ‘Finos’ in Latin America, these beautiful and finely handwoven Fedora Panama Hats are famous for their soft, lightweight and breathable qualities, while looking timeless and stylish.
Each Fedora Panama hat takes over 2 weeks to create, expertly handwoven by the Artisan women of the Las Juanita’s Single Mothers Association in Colombia.
This fine weave and excellent quality is unique, due to using a high grade of sustainable Iraca Palm and generations of traditional skill. The neutral and colourful tones reflect Colombian ancestors' connection with nature and culture.

Measuring your Head Size:
- Place a tape measure in the centre back of your head
- Bring both sides round to the front with the tape above your ears and below your hairline
- Bring the tape measure together in the middle of your forehead
- Don't pull the tape measure too tight, however you do want a firm fit
Iraca Palm Hat Care:
- Hold the hat only by the brim.
- Do not leave your hat in a car, as the extreme temperature may dry out and break the Iraca Palm fibres.
- After wearing the hat on very hot days (30+ degrees) in dry environments, allow the hat to cool down and finely spray with a little water. Check the Iraca Palm fibres are fully dry before storing it.
