History
Mission
In 2002 a group of friends got together to start a company that reflected their shared vision: headwear should be more than an accessory. We saw an opportunity to provide the market with accessories that took fit, fashion, and function equally seriously, and looked at headwear as an extension of you, your identity and your lifestyle. Design was—and still is—the main factor of every style. From the color and yarn / material type, to the way we brand each piece and most importantly the fit and look when worn. Today we continue to strive to create the best possible headwear out there. It’s all about design, uncompromising attention to detail, and superior components.
Coal was founded on the belief that headwear is more than an accessory. It’s part of you, your identity, and your lifestyle. We build this idea into each of our designs by using quality materials and exacting detail, and crafting styles that are as unique as you are.
This logo throughout our catalog indicates a Coal Considered style. Considered pieces are classically inspired with a modern twist, where no detail is overlooked. In our Spring / Summer 2015 Collection we are excited to introduce new limited edition collaborations, as well as innovative designs and fine materials, from domestic wool felt to organic cotton.

The Exposure SE Born and bred in St. Johns, Michigan on blue-collar principals, Mark Welsh chose skateboarding over Little League, setting himself apart from his peers through a life long love of all things anti-establishment. Mark picked up his first camera at the age of thirteen, shooting photos of his friends skateboarding and the local lifestyle. At sixteen with his strong Americana roots intact, Mark ventured out into the world and found himself in Japan. He fell in love with the language and culture, spending the next decade studying Japanese and photography, traveling back and forth from the US to Japan. Upon a friend’s suggestion to move to Salt Lake City, Mark found the doors open to snowboard photography. Suddenly travel, friends and fun were combined into a tangible means of work. Mark has contributed to countless publications and collaborated with companies such as Chorus, L1, Coal Headwear, Nitro, Smith Optics, Dakine and Quiksilver. He continues to apply his working man’s ethic while pushing his photography into a broader spectrum with a constant evolution of vision. He has pushed the limits of his profession while keeping his feet firmly planted on the ground, inspiring those around him to pursue what they love as he continues to do the same in unexpected ways.

The Angler Born and raised in Vernon, BC, Jess Kimura is now based out of Squamish, BC. Located two skips away from nature at any given moment, she is always wondering about what the fish are up to or what outdoor adventure will come next.

We are excited to introduce this updated collaboration, which—through custom artwork—combines Jess’ passion for fishing and our signature Palmer cap.

Appreciation
USA Wool Felt
Thanks to everyone who helps make Coal possible.
Our US-made wool felt hats are made by a manufacturer that has been around for over 100 years. They have perfected the art of making wool felt fedoras, bowlers and other highly crafted headwear. The wool they use comes from Texas and goes through a rigorous process where the raw wool is first formed into loose cone shaped bodies. From there the cones are treated with pressure and hot water repeatedly. The combination of the pressure and heat begins to felt the wool fibers. The felt becomes tighter and denser as the process continues. Once the bodies are ready for use they are blocked by hand, the brims trimmed and shaped, and the final trims, lining and labeling applied.
