The “Panama hat” is infamously misnamed. The handmade straw headgear actually hails from Ecuador. Construction workers building the Panama Canal wore the hats, though, as their wide brims protected them from the harsh hot sun. In 1906, President Theodore Roosevelt inspected the construction of the canal in a white linen suit topped off with one of the Ecuadorian hats. Photos of Roosevelt unintentionally launched a fashion trend, and the name stuck. The real Panama hat is the sombrero pintado (“painted hat”), also known as the pinta’o.
The pinta’o originated in the province of Coclé southwest of Panama City, where the hats are still made today. Like the Panama hat, the pinta’o is also handwoven with natural fibers, but it is defined by intricate dark patterns that are woven throughout the hat. Exquisite artisanship is required to craft the sombrero from the fibers of several local plants—bellota for the white part of the hat, chonta for decoration, chisná for dying fiber, junco to make the ornate tarco stripe, and pita for stitching the hat. The bellota fibers are boiled before being sun-dried for about a week, as the whiter the fiber, the more valuable the hat. After the fiber has dried to the desired shade, it’s woven into braids. To form the hat, braids are wrapped around a wooden block and carefully sewn together by hand. Intricate geometric motifs—straight lines, waves and zig-zags—are formed from bands of chonta fiber dyed with chisná leaves. The design creates the appearance of a “painted hat.”
In 2017, Unesco inscribed the pinta’o to its ​​List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, which honors knowledge, tradition and rituals that are an intrinsic part of a culture.
I am so very fortunate and honored to have been gifted this special pinta’o hat by my very dear friends, my familia Panama, at the W Hotel Panama , where I have been a monthly guest there for the last year or so. Ayhe, Giovani and Ricardo - Thank you so very much for your kindness, generosity and friendship. I greatly appreciate ALL THAT YOU DO for me. Very Grateful to know you.

It was an honor and a privilege to meet with Ambassador Patricia Moller today, a figure whose career has been as impactful as it has been inspiring. Ambassador Moller, a former investment banker turned career diplomat, has left an indelible mark on the world through her service and commitment to fostering business in developing countries. Both in her distinguished foreign service as U.S. Ambassador to Guinea and Burundi; Charge d’Affaires to Morocco and Romania; Deputy Ambassador to Georgia and Armenia; and now in the private sector. Her insights into the complexities of international relations and economic development are not only enlightening, but also deeply motivating.

Ambassador Moller’s work as Founding Partner and Chairman of the Board for West Africa LNG Group is a testament to her continued dedication to global development. Her experiences in a long list of countries, have equipped her with a unique perspective on the challenges and opportunities that lie in international business.

Meeting Ambassador Moller today was a wonderful learning experience that I will always cherish. Her wisdom, drawn from decades of diplomatic service, has encouraged me to think more broadly about my own role in the global community.

As we parted ways, I was left with a renewed sense of purpose and a deeper understanding of the intricate tapestry of global affairs. Myself, my current and future clients, and Montana Global Consulting as a whole will truly benefit from this special visit. I am grateful for the opportunity to have met such a remarkable individual and look forward to the positive changes that Ambassador Moller’s continued work will undoubtedly bring to the world.
