What materials are these hats made of?
Our hats—like the Vintage Heavy Ball Cap, Dragon Dad Hat, and Unapologetic Hat—are built from mid-weight or heavy canvas cotton, inspired by 1950s ball cap craftsmanship. They are 100% cotton b/c it feels the best on your skin and breathes.
How do they fit? Are they size-adjustable?
Luxury is in the details. We use waxed laces that stay clean and crisp, full-grain leather that ages beautifully, and natural rubber that's both comfy and biodegradable. Every pair is handcrafted by world-class artisans in Italy.
