The Sombrero is a symbol of Mexican pride and respect showing masculinity, power, and agility. The Mexican sombrero has become a national and cultural symbol, and is often used in traditional Mexican celebrations.


Sombrero hats were center stage in the traditional Mexican hat dance. In this treasured folk tale, a poor peasant is in love with a beautiful maiden to flirt with her, he tosses his sombrero, a prized possession, on the ground as an offering of his generosity when the girl accepts his entreaties, she dances upon the brim of the hat.
