MATERIALS + PROCESS
Our Bucket Hats are handmade by a women’s artisan group living in the cloudforest of Intag, Ecuador. These women use an ancient crafting technique to create products from cabuya, a native agave fiber.
Our bucket hats are all one-of-a-kind. This means that no two are exactly alike and almost all contain irregularities from size to styles to color. Please allow for slight imperfections as this is what adds to the unique character of each hat.
If you are in between sizes or unsure of your hat size, we recommend sizing up. Most of our hats have an elastic band on the inside to add a snug fit. Questions?

To find your personal hat size, you will have to measure the circumference of your head. You'll need either a flexible tape-measure or a long piece of fabric (i.e. scarf or string) and a ruler. Simply wrap it around your head about 2-3" above your eyebrows to find the circumference.
Please read the description for each product to understand if there's any changes or design notes to take into account.
Packable, Flexible and Ready for Adventure
Since our bucket hats are crocheted natural fiber that means they are bendable and flexible! Pack your hat in your suitcase or in the back of your car for a roadtrip and it'll come back to it's shape.
A Tradional Craft Made from Plants
Our artisan partners use Cabuya, a native agave fiber, to make and crochet our Bucket Hats. To access the fiber, our artisan partners harvest the Penca plant and break down its leaves to access the fiber that lives inside to be processed into workable thread.
People have been crafting products from cabuya for thousands of years. In fact, it was one of the first plant fibers processed for commercial use, but sadly with the introduction of plastics, its need has slowly decreased. Our artisan partners represent some of the last communities still using this age-old method.
Colored by Nature
The beautiful tones on our woven bucket hats are made from plants. Our artisan partners collect organic matter like tree barks, leaves and berries to botanically dye and process the fiber.

Clearly much higher quality than any other sun hat I've owned. It's simple and very cute, easy throw on with a lot of fits for summer and especially vacation. I have a pretty small head and the small fit snug so if you DON'T have a small head, I'd recommend a bigger size lol.

Has traveled the world with me! 1000% worth the investment!
This hat is my absolute favorite. It has literally been all over the world with me. It’s been rolled up in the bottom of my suitcase, baked in the sun, covered in salt water, and still and is still in fantastic shape! I love that it rolls up small for packing, and has not changed color at all. Such an incredible product!

Love my handmade summer bucket hat!
This hat is truly a handmade work of art that is flexible, packable, functional, stylish and fun to wear. It's got some weight and thickness and is not paper thin like a straw hat. I was out in 30 mph wind gusts and it did not blow off but I also made sure to have it pulled down on my head good as you will see in some pics. I got this hat to keep the sun out of my eyes, because it's cute, I've always wanted one of these hats but wanted a well made one, and I love handmade pieces. I ordered SIZE M/L. There is an elastic band sewn inside which helps to give a good hold and fit. This hat feels strong and like it is made to last. I am extremely happy with my choice!!!
