Hat Hook
Hat hooks feature specialized designs that hold hats without crushing brims or damaging crowns. Unlike standard hooks that can deform hat shapes, proper hat hooks provide wider surfaces and gentle curves. This dedicated hardware respects hat construction while keeping collections organized and accessible.
The design typically includes broader mounting surfaces that distribute weight without creating pressure points on hat bands. Some designs incorporate upturned ends that cradle hat brims, while others provide ball-end profiles that support without marking.

Placement & Usage Tips
Mount at heights appropriate for hat access—typically 60-72 inches. Space hooks adequately apart so hats don't touch. In mudrooms, position separate from coat hooks to prevent crowding.
💡 Pro Tip
Display special or vintage hats on hat hooks as decorative elements. The visible storage becomes gallery-like presentation while keeping treasured hats accessible and well-maintained.
