One hat, built to your specs and your head. Pick the felt, the color, the crown and the brim — or hand us a reference photo and let us take it from there.
Custom Hat Inquiry
At West & Hide, every custom hat is built by hand, one at a time, with a focus on timeless Western style, quality materials, and traditional hat-making techniques. From premium rabbit and beaver felt to carefully selected hat bands, feathers, chains, and custom details, every element is chosen to create a hat that is uniquely yours.
Specializing in classic Western shapes and timeless silhouettes, West & Hide combines old-school craftsmanship with a modern California spirit. Each hat is shaped, finished, and fitted by hand to create something made not only to be worn, but to be lived in.
Your hat should tell your story.
Please complete the form below with as much detail as possible about the custom hat you'd like to have made. Tell me about the color, shape, brim, hat band, materials, or any other details you have in mind. If you're not sure exactly what you want, that's okay — I can help guide you through the process and bring the idea to life.
Once your inquiry is submitted, I'll be in touch with information about your custom order, the hat-making process, available materials and custom options, pricing, and next steps.
For remote fittings, please indicate if you will require a sizing kit.
Every West & Hide hat is made with intention, built to last, and meant to become part of your story.

You get a price, a build time and a sketch of where we're headed. Nothing starts until you approve it.
Felt gets sized, steamed, blocked, shaped, sanded and trimmed. Photos along the way.
Stamped, signed and shipped insured in a hat box that'll survive the trip.
The Builder
Everything here is a starting point, not a contract. We'll confirm the details before anything touches a block.
On the Block
No Shortcuts
Every hat gets sized to a wooden block, steamed, pulled, pounced and shaped by hand. Nothing is stamped out and nothing is pre-creased.
That's why it takes a month and a half instead of an afternoon — and why it'll still be holding its shape a decade from now.
