About San Francisco Hat Company

San Francisco Hat Company hats have been to tea with the queen, been photographed by Lord Snowden on the Issey Miyake runway, and brightened the covers of fashion magazines, and they’ve made life easier on tractors, river rapids, arctic expeditions. Besides being beautiful, our hats are supremely functional, sun blocking, moisture wicking, packable, and comfortable in all kinds of weather. Felt, straw, raffia, Techstraw, ribbon, fleece. We make hats that work so you can play. With a tip of our hat to the venerated seminal East Bay outdoor industry. Our first workplace was down the street from Sierra Design and several blocks from The North Face, where Stefan did a stint as a tent designer. Our cutting tables, die cutters, and assorted tools came from The North Face, as did our hat pressman and two top sewers, including Hisako Haskins, credited as one of the founding creatives of The North Face. Our factory work space features modern hydraulic hat presses complemented by an arduously assembled collection of specialized hat machines - from the 1920s era Bulasky sewing machines we found in Chicago to an extremely rare 1876 edge cutter we discovered in the basement of a sewing machine shop in San Francisco. We have a large collection of hat molds; some made to our designs and others that we bought from closing factories, giving us access to a large suite of vintage shapes like our Rat Pack era stingy brim fedoras.
