Hills Hats is a New Zealand hatmaker with a long-running local manufacturing base. The available sustainability-related information is limited, and a Good On You assessment says it does not publish sufficient relevant information about its environmental policies, labour practices, or animal welfare policy. The company states that its final stage of production is undertaken in New Zealand and that it keeps its personal customer information private. In 2025, it launched a PledgeMe campaign to relocate its workshop to a new space, describing the move as part of continuing production and preserving traditional hat-making skills.

Hills Hats Sustainability Actions

Final production in New Zealand

Its final stage of production is undertaken in New Zealand, a low risk country for labour abuse.

Customer privacy policy

The personal information we receive from our customers is kept private. We do not sell or share this information with anyone outside of Hills Hats unless required by law.

Workshop relocation campaign

But after 28 years in our previous location, it was time to move. Our previous building could no longer support the needs of a modern workshop, and we’re facing rising costs and logistical challenges that threaten our ability to continue.

Preserve hat-making skills

Our support will help cover moving costs, equipment upgrades, and the setup of a new workspace that honors our heritage while preparing us for the future. Preserve traditional hat-making skills and train the next generation.
