Dressing Etiquette

It is not only a faux pas to go shirtless in any city and town in Panama, but it is also illegal. Panamanians are very stylish, casual dress in Panama is still quite formal, and personal appearance and hygiene are a high priority. Men and women wear suits and dresses even when the weather is hot. This doesn’t mean that you should not dress comfortably. For casual outings, a pair of jeans and a clean collared shirt work well.

Shorts and sandals are neither common nor expected attire. Wear comfortable clothes, but always try to maintain a stylish appearance; this is especially true in cities, but less so in rural areas. Longer linen shorts are fashionable for sporting events. Women would be making a big mistake if they wore jeans to a night out instead of formal attire. It is not necessary to constantly splurge on designer clothing. It only takes a neat, well-groomed appearance and a little confidence to blend in with the Panamanians.
