Natural Vented Cattleman | Classic
Inspired by the enduring silhouettes of the mountains and the people who have worked this land for generations, this hat is an homage to timeless simplicity. The clean lines, natural palm, and handcrafted leather band create a piece that feels equally at home on a ranch, wandering a mountain town, or shared around an evening campfire.
As someone who is endlessly drawn to texture, color, and thoughtfully layered adornment, I intentionally wanted to include one design that celebrates restraint. Sometimes a beautiful hat doesn't need elaborate embellishment to make a statement. Sometimes the materials speak for themselves.
Finished with a handcrafted leather band, this piece is designed to be an everyday companion. Easy to wear, endlessly versatile, and made to grow more beautiful with age.
If you love this hatband but would prefer a different crown shape or palm color, I'd be happy to adapt the design. Please reach out.

About Guatemalan Palm
Every palm hat begins in the hands of skilled artisans in Guatemala, where palm weaving has been a cherished tradition for centuries. Passed down through generations, this enduring craft creates lightweight, durable hats designed to withstand long days under the sun. Using locally harvested palm leaves, each hat is woven with remarkable care before making its way to my Colorado studio, where I have the privilege of refining, shaping, and adorning every piece. The result is a hat that honors the legacy of its origins while carrying its own unique story forward.

Sizing Tip
The Guatemalan hat has a foam-padded cotton twill sweatband that tends to shrink about 1% with heat and moisture. This is about 1/2 of a hat size (1/16" diameter). If you are buying a Guatemalan hat, we recommend buying a hat that is just a little bit loose to allow for this shrinkage. This usually means buying one size larger than you normally wear.
To Determine Your Hat Size
Measure around your head where you wear your hats in inches (circumference).
