WHERE FASHION MEETS FUNCTION

It’s 2024 + it feels like there is always a hot new must-have product hitting the shelves. It’s hard to keep up! Between all of the trends + social media fads it’s easy to find ourselves purchasing an endless amount of products that, in the end, may or may not have been totally worth it + now we’re stuck storing the dang thing in a drawer somewhere. This is especially disheartening when the product was promised to help make life easier to begin with, not clutter up your storage closets. Sound familiar? 

Let’s get a little bit more specific. Have you ever tried traveling with a new hat? The stress!! Believe it or not, it doesn’t actually have to be stressful + there are several products worthy of solving this balancing act (that won’t end up cluttering your closets or causing buyers remorse.) We’re here to introduce a new way to travel with a hat, break down the value behind traveling with a hat carrier + how these hat carrying totes can quickly become a daily essential product, all made with quality to last a lifetime (no hats required.)

HAYES HAT CARRYING TOTE

The Hayes Hat Carrying Tote sold out in record timing + went absolutely viral on the internet multiple times. If that doesn’t say “I NEED THIS BAG” then we don’t know what does! What makes this tote so special? This luxe, everyday tote is meant to carry the essentials of daily life + as a bonus adds a high-quality flair to your wardrobe. When it comes to functional fashion, we thought of it all. Internally, this bag comes equipped with an open pocket + a zipper pocket to secure any loose items in place as well as a padded laptop sleeve for laptops up to 13". The innovative “U” strap on the exterior allows for you to carry your hat with ease through the airport for those moments when wearing it on your head isn’t ideal. This eliminates the worry of the weight of your hat being too much, such as you’d have to consider with a travel hat clip. It’s luxurious, functional + built with 100% quality Genuine Leather for ultimate durability. No matter where you’re going or which Gigi Pip hat is in tow, the Hayes Hat Carrying Tote is your next essential hat travel bag.
