Handcrafted. Distinctly Yours.

At Cover & Brim, we believe a hat is more than an accessory — it’s a personal statement. Every piece we create is designed to reflect individuality, intention, and story. Our custom hats are handcrafted by skilled artisans, blending time-honoured techniques with a modern, elevated aesthetic to produce truly one-of-a-kind designs.

From custom cowboy hats to fedoras and wide brims, our premium 100% beaver felt and straw hats are made to express who you are. Every detail matters. Every story is different. Wear yours with confidence.

Below are just a few of the stories we’ve recently brought to life. Each hat is handmade specifically for its owner, using the highest-quality felt, carefully sourced materials, and distinctive vintage accents.

Custom Hat FAQs

Why Choose a Custom Beaver Felt Hat?

Beaver felt is prized for its durability, softness, and ability to maintain shape over time, making it the ideal material for a long-lasting custom hat. Our premium beaver felt is sourced from top-quality materials to ensure your hat not only looks exceptional, but wears beautifully for years.

When you choose a custom hat from Cover & Brim, you’re investing in a piece made specifically for you. Our artisans work closely with each client to understand their vision — drawing inspiration from personal experiences, meaningful details, colours, symbols, and numbers. The result is a hat that feels as individual as the person wearing it.

The Cover & Brim Process

Your custom hat journey begins with a consultation, either in person or virtually. During this session, we’ll discuss style preferences, take measurements, and refine the details that will make your hat truly unique.

From there, our artisans begin shaping and building your hat by hand using traditional tools and techniques. Every stitch, trim, and finish is handled with care and attention to detail.

Once complete, you’ll be invited for a final fitting to ensure the perfect balance of comfort and style. If an in-person fitting isn’t possible, your hat will be shipped to you with guidance for any minor adjustments needed after delivery.
