meet the hatter

Hi! I'm Dana

Saltwater Sage Hat Company is where the spirit of the American West meets the soulful rhythm of the sea. For over a decade, I've been honing my craft, transforming a lifelong passion for hatmaking into a dedicated pursuit. My work is a love letter to both the rugged West and the wild Maine coast, a fusion of two distinct landscapes into one unique style.

Working from my studio in Maine, I specialize in blocking and shaping luxury hats made from ethically and sustainably sourced beaver and rabbit fur felt. Each hat is meticulously handcrafted, built to last a lifetime and tell your unique story.

I offer a range of services to meet your needs:

  • Cleaning and Restoration: Revitalize a beloved hat and give it a new life.
  • Custom Shaping and Design: Collaborate with me to create a hat that perfectly captures your style.
  • Luxury Crown Creation: Commission a bespoke, one-of-a-kind piece that is truly your own.

Whether you're looking for a timeless accessory or a custom-designed treasure, a Saltwater Sage hat is more than just an item—it's a wearable piece of art.
