From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ordinary Puerto Rican Pava

The pava is a straw hat made out of the leaves of the Puerto Rican hat palm. It is normally associated with the Puerto Rican jíbaro and with the Popular Democratic Party (PPD).[1][2][3][4]

Children and adults wear the pava when they dress up like a jíbaro.[5][6]
