One of a kind, just like you
All of our products are custom and made-to-order by our talented artisans. Each hat and bag takes approximately 7-10 days to craft and is then shipped to our workshop in Ojai, California where we lovingly adorn with its finishing touches. NINAKURU Panama hats and bags are meticulously hand-woven in the Andean highlands of South America by a women’s fair trade cooperative, ensuring weavers receive dignified wages, health benefits, and educational assistance for their children.
