The DeByl Story

At DeByl Hats, we believe a truly beautiful hat begins with a story. Ours started in Leipzig, where Lisa, a German craftswoman with a love for timeless design, met Peter, a British milliner trained in traditional techniques. United by a passion for slow fashion, heritage craftsmanship and the joy of personal expression, we founded DeByl Hats to bring back the art of handmade headwear—one fedora at a time. 

   

Every hat we create is handcrafted in our Leipzig studio, using only the finest natural materials and time-honoured methods. We work closely with our clients to design pieces that feel as personal as they are elegant—perfect for weddings, race days, and life's most unforgettable moments. We’re proud to be a small, independent studio where quality, sustainability, and individuality come first.
