Dear iseagreen community, 

Spent a long time waiting to write this, but here we are. I recognize your time is important, so I’ll try not to waste it and hope this message finds you well.

I started iseagreen in college because I didn’t love what was in the hat market. It seemed the only way I could get cool, 90s styled hats was by buying them used on ebay. I had a hard time trusting someone else get it right, so, I bought an embroidery machine with money I had saved from my ol’ restaurant gig. Irrational and quite mad, I know.

Having parents and siblings with deep backgrounds in music, I knew I always wanted to do something creative but wasn’t sure where to begin. After all, I had always been a sports guy. One day, though, it finally hit me: you’ve been collecting hats since you were a kid yet you buy them secondhand. Address your problem with a solution. Make old school hats you’d wish you had found online. Atlas, iseagreen was born. 

Life has humbled me in many ways, yet I always try to find the silver lining in things. There is plenty of negativity in this world, but if we can shed light, hope, and instill a belief that love is more powerful than the battles this world draws, I can pass someday knowing we gave it our all.

Ego is necessary for survival, but what lies within all of us is humanity's real superpower. We’re on a mission to share what connects us all. 

A hat is just a hat, unless it’s made with love. 

A whole lotta love.
