DECHO

DECHO is a Japanese hat maker, founded in 2003 in Okayama. The label draws on traditional Japanese techniques and design resources to hand reconstruct classic hat shapes, so each piece starts from a familiar silhouette and is rebuilt with real care.

The ideas behind the shapes come from vintage military and workwear reference points, which is why the hats feel practical and lived-in rather than fussy. Everything is made by hand, and the attention to detail is what lets DECHO keep turning out distinctive styles without repeating itself.

If you like Japanese-made headwear with a workwear and military background, this is a label worth knowing. Look for it at stockists that carry Japanese brands.
