  • What hat styles do you offer?

    We offer two hat styles: trucker hats and 5-panel hats. The trucker is a classic mesh-back with a structured front and snapback closure. The 5-panel is a structured A-frame with a high crown and wide front panel. Both come in a range of colours and are available across all of our collections.

  • What type of leather do you use for the patches?

    We use full-grain leather — the highest quality leather available. Full-grain means the hide's natural surface hasn't been sanded or buffed, so it's stronger, more durable, and develops a natural patina over time. It's the same leather used in premium wallets and belts, and it's why our patches look better the longer you wear them.

  • Why are your patches heat-stamped instead of laser engraved?

    We use heated brass dies to press designs into full-grain leather, creating a deep, detailed impression with natural texture. Unlike laser engraving — which burns the surface and can look flat or scorched — heat-stamping produces a rich, premium look that won't fade or wear away over time. It's the same technique used by traditional leather craftsmen, and it's why our patches stand out.

  • What collections do you have?

    Our leather patch hats are organized by theme. The Canada Collection features provincial maps, maple leaf, and flag designs. Canadian Wildlife includes bison, elk, wolf, and eagle. National Parks covers Banff, Jasper, Yellowstone, and more. Great Outdoors is wilderness and nature-inspired designs. Local features Canadian city codes. Personalized Text lets you add your own name or message. You can also browse by style — Trucker Hats or 5-Panel Hats.

  • Can I get my own logo on a hat?

    Yes. Our custom leather patch hats service lets you put your own logo on any hat style — 5-hat minimum, free mock-ups. We'll craft a custom brass stamp of your design and heat-stamp it onto full-grain leather, same quality as our retail hats.

  • What does your lifetime craftsmanship guarantee cover?

    We stand behind the quality of our work. If your leather patch peels, cracks, or separates from the hat due to a craftsmanship defect, we'll replace it—no time limit. This doesn't cover normal wear and tear, but it does mean you can trust that your hats are built to last.
