About Us | Ohohat® – Redefining the Future of Headwear
Where Heritage Meets Avant-Garde
Our Origin
Born in 2015 from a workshop experiment in Lausanne, Switzerland, Ohohat® was founded by a team of material scientists and fashion designers. We identified two critical flaws in traditional headwear: functionality compromising aesthetics and fast fashion sacrificing sustainability. Through 3D-knitting topology and plant-based composites, we craft hats that merge architectural elegance with eco-conscious design.
Core Values
✅ Design Philosophy
▸ Golden Ratio Tailoring: Based on ergonomic data from 68 countries
▸ Dynamic Adaptability: Shape-memory fibers auto-adjust brim curvature (Patent: WO2025OHO001)
✅ Sustainability Pledge
▸ 100% biodegradable materials: Corn fiber lining + algae-based coating
▸ Carbon footprint transparency: Each hat displays production energy use (57% less than industry avg.)
✅ Cultural Impact
▸ African artisan collaborations: 10% of proceeds preserve traditional weaving techniques
▸ Metaverse collectibles: Physical purchases unlock exclusive NFT headwear
