About Our Founder

Growing up in Texas, I struggled to find a hat that provided adequate UV protection for my face and ears while outdoors.  Bucket hats offered more protection, but I couldn’t get used to their cumbersome designs and the strings flapping around. After a year of searching for alternatives without success, I decided to create my own design. Over the next 18 months, I worked with a top hat maker in the U.S. to develop prototypes and eventually filed a patent. Through extensive testing with outdoor athletes, we created a hat that outperforms anything on the market. Our commitment to innovation ensures that our hand crafted hats provide the highest level of protection, comfort, and style for outdoor enthusiasts everywhere.

Inspired Performance

At Harpy Hats, we draw inspiration from the majestic Harpy Eagle for our logo and hat designs. Just like the eagle goddess Nekhbet protected the Pharaohs and their royal families, our hats will protect you.
