About Santa Fe Hat Company

Santa Fe Hat Company is located in the historic Guadalupe district of Santa Fe, New Mexico. Founded in 1976 by Milton R. Johnson, the business began as a combined retail store and custom hat-making shop. Johnson later acquired a second studio that became Montecristi Custom Hat Works, the company's custom manufacturing division. The company remains at its original Plaza-area location. The company produces custom hats through Montecristi Custom Hat Works, specializing in handwoven Panama straw hats from Ecuador and beaver fur felt hats sourced from European and U.S. mills. It also operates a retail division carrying brands such as Stetson, Borsalino, Larry Mahan, Serratelli, Fernandez y Roche, and its own SFHC label. In addition, the shop fabricates artisan hat bands using materials including sterling silver, gold, porcupine quill, braided leather, and horsehair. The company does not specify industrial sectors beyond apparel and fashion accessories. The founder's guiding principle—“Fashions come and go, but a stylish hat lasts forever”—reflects the company's focus on enduring craftsmanship. The firm distinguishes itself through its half-century heritage, direct access to Ecuadorian Panama weavers, and a curated selection of premium felt and straw hats alongside locally crafted hat bands.
