Handmade alpaca and sheep wool blend hats crafted by Quechua Artisans in Peru. These hats are unisex, sustainably-made, durable, weather resistant and offer full sun-protection for your everyday activities. The Western Style Hat is a traditional “Cowboy and Rancher Style” hat. Each hat comes with a removable, textile intention band that has an ancient woven meaning.
By wearing the Nawi Intention Band, you are calling protection and good luck into your life. Nawi means Eye in Quechua. This “evil eye” pattern protects the textile and wearer by “reflecting” bad energy away, allowing a change of fortune and luck to enter in. The “Evil Eye” symbol is one of the only symbols that spans across all cultures, oceans, and religions, reaching as far as the Incan empire. Wear this intention when faced with adversity or uncertainty to give you strength, confidence and positive energy.
