Handcrafted in Guatemala, these Palm Leaf Straw Hats are durable and offer full sun-protection for your everyday activities. Modeled after our best-selling Western Alpaca Wool Hat, the unisex Straw Western Hat is a traditional “Western Style” hat with a removable Quechua textile intention band. Available in sizes S, M, L & XL for men and women. By wearing the Inlak’ech intention band, you are calling in “unity” and “respect for all beings” into your life. Inlak’ech, which in Mayan means “You are my other me”, represents the concept of the universe as a great unity where everything is related. In Mayan culture, we do not exist as separate entities, we exist from our belonging and relationship with the community and with everything that surrounds us. Not just individuals, but plants, animals, the winds, and the spirits are united and nothing exists without the relationship to the other. That is why any action of one affects the other. Just as the night does not exist without the day, everything is connected and we have to hold a deep respect for how we are all part of a whole. Each color woven into this intention band represents the diversity of all living things that are different, yet are all woven together. 100% Guatemalan Palm Leaf Extra-wide brim 10cm x 13cm brim length You choose your own woven band Handmade in Guatemala
