If you ask any product-based company what the most challenging part of starting a business, manufacturing will list in the top 5.
Manufacturing is like dating. It takes a few trial dates and relationships before you really know what you want in a partner. Additionally, a strong manufacturing partner who is trustworthy, reliable, and devoted to making the best product time and time again, is the key to success.

KIN women's wool hats and women's straw hats are designed in California and are responsibly manufactured by expert craftsmen on the East Coast using century-old techniques that are rooted in sourcing quality materials–as close to their origin. We believe that modern luxury should not be defined by a price tag, but rather tried and true craftsmanship. Thoughtful design is about each step of the process, where no detail is too small.
