Straw Hat - light tan

Our hats are 100% handcrafted in Cuenca, Ecuador, by master artisans who preserve a centuries-old weaving tradition recognized by UNESCO as Intangible Cultural Heritage.

Each piece is woven from the finest paja toquilla straw, classified as Brisa weave, Grade 6-7 fine, ensuring exceptional lightness, flexibility, and durability. The weave reflects precision, patience, and generational mastery.

This is a special edition created exclusively for Kerry Kouture, blending timeless Ecuadorian craftsmanship with contemporary elegance.

Every hat requires days of meticulous handwork — from the harvesting and preparation of the fiber to the weaving and final shaping - resulting in a refined, breathable, and luxuriously finished piece.

These are not simply hats; they are heirlooms of craftsmanship, authenticity, and quiet excellence.
