The Panama hat is known worldwide as a symbol — and yet it carries the wrong name. This episode travels to Ecuador, the hat’s true country of origin, and explores the story of the Panama hat beyond common myths and misconceptions. It looks at colonial attributions, global trade routes and the role of traditional craftsmanship. At the center are the fine Montecristi Panama hats, their cultural significance and the question of how cultural identity is formed, displaced or lost.
