JOIN THE WAITLIST

Thank you so much for your interest in a Feather & Drum custom hat. Simply fill out the below form to get started on the process. Someone will be in touch to get moving on the next step and take your deposit.

If you’re not sure what you’re looking for but ready to join the waitlist, we can help you with those details further down the line.

Please note that our waitlist for custom hats is anywhere from 5-7 months.

HOW TO GET YOUR CUSTOM HAT

Each hat is handmade by Cat Leahy with premium quality fur felt.
Wool felt is available on request, but we’ve found that it doesn’t compare to the quality and longevity of fur.

  1. After perusing this page, please fill out the form above or flick through an email. We’ll be in touch with the next steps and discuss your custom design.

  2. To secure your spot in the production line we request payment of $250 deposit. Current wait times are around 5-7 months, but if you need your hat for a particular date please let Cat know in your consultation. We require a non-refundable deposit when placing your order. This is to secure your materials. Your remaining balance is due once your order is complete, prior to shipping.

  3. Design and Fit Consultation can be by appointment in the shop in Yackandandah, or via video chat. We will talk about your desired look, shape, colour palette and how we can customise your hat to express your identity.

  4. Once your hat is ready, you’ll be provided with images to ogle over while you pay the balance and shipping cost. We will then box the hat and pop it in the post. Waiting times depend on the state of the world, but a ballpark figure would be 1 week Australia wide, and 2+ weeks internationally.
