CONNER HATS
We put something really good inside of your hat. Instead of using a petroleum based foam we use a high performance flexible foam made from algae biomass harvested from freshwater sources throughout the world, including Florida. The rise in global temperatures, excess nutrient runoff, and human activities have contributed to an uncontrollable rise in algae growth- harming plant, animal and human life. Bloom foam removes the algae, recirculates freshwater back into the habitat and turns this biomass into perfect foam for making a better quality hat and improves our environment.
About CONNER HATS
Will Conner started clocking his way toward hat making proficiency as a kid in his dad’s factory in Byron Bay, Australia. In 2014, the surfer/musician created the Conner Hats brand. Will’s father, Bill Conner started BC Hats® in 1969 and was the first in Australia to make a leather hat with a shapeable brim. His original style, ‘The Stockman’, has inspired many imitations around the world. By designing and manufacturing styles beyond what BC Hats offers, Will was able to grow his business and find placement in a wider selection of retail stores across the U.S. As the business grew, Conner Hats solidified a commitment to incorporating sustainable materials like organic cotton, hemp, and from recycled plastic composites.
