Wide-brim panama hat with printed band

The legendary panama hat gained its iconic status when President Theodore Roosevelt wore one on his visit to the Panama Canal. Since then, these hats have graced the heads of style greats ranging from Ernest Hemingway to Paul Newman (you can't get much more authentic than that). Woven by hand in Ecuador from fronds of the toquilla palm (so no two are exactly alike), it's the perfect tomboy touch to pretty much any ensemble. New this season, this panama hat features a slightly higher crown and wider brim than the original. To coordinate with your outfit—or your swimsuit—we also added a fun, floral-printed ribbon.
