Hello!

My name is Sinead. I'm an Australian textile designer and hat maker living in Tokyo.

With a background in interior design and a love for colour, pattern and texture, I began making hats for my sons and eventually matching hats for myself and my partner.

As interest was growing amongst family and friends, I decided to start a small hat making business to spread the sun-safe love. 

I have family roots in Japan and have always sought inspiration in the Japanese landscape, people and culture. I look forward to sharing my designs with you.

Boushi Boots

''Boushi'' means hat in Japanese and ''Boots'' is a nickname I have at home.

​

Shop

Hats made from original Boushi Boots fabric are sold on this website. Hats from my previous collection made from sourced fabric can be found here (Japan only).

​

Made with love

Boushi Boots hats are hand-cut, machine sewn and packaged in my home studio. Each piece is made-to-order and created with you in mind. 

​

Hats for all!

Boushi Boots hats come in sizes for the whole family. Matchy-matchy alert!! 

They are made to be completely reversible if you wish - even the care label is removable. 

​

Thank you

for supporting this gal and her small business!
