Founded in September 2019, the MontCapel cooperative embarked on an ambitious project by reinvesting in a former millinery site in the heart of the Haute Vallée de l'Aude (11). Our main mission is to revive and reinvent the tradition of hat-making by restoring this historically rich location. Our central objective is the renovation of felt and wool felt hat production. Felt, the emblematic material of millinery, is at the core of our expertise. We are committed to revitalizing it, modernizing it while preserving its timeless charm. Beyond preserving this artisanal tradition, MontCapel is committed to promoting an environmentally friendly approach to manufacturing. We prioritize the use of high-quality wool, and all our products are made with a deep concern for sustainability. Cooperation is at the heart of our model, and we are proud to be a company collectively owned by our members, all united by a common passion for quality craftsmanship. At MontCapel, we are determined to perpetuate tradition while shaping the future of hat-making with a modern and environmentally conscious touch. We warmly invite you to discover our work, our creations, and our commitment to artisanal authenticity, excellence, and sustainability. MontCapel is the rebirth of felt, the enduring tradition, and a vision of the future taking shape.
When it rains, choosing the right hat can turn a gloomy day into an opportunity to show off your sense of style while staying dry.
