I fell in love with wool in summer 2010 when I was introduced to felt at a conference in Sweden. I was so fascinated by the infinite possibilities that it has so much in shape and nuances of colors that I have continued to experiment and train with
textile artists throughout Europe since then until obtaining the FEDAC craftsman's card.


To this day I have specified myself in the elaboration of hats starting from the threads of sheep's wool and silk. We merge the techniques of handmade felt with the techniques of traditional headgear, using lasts and with steam we give its final shape. Likewise, we create 100% handmade hats, local production and unique designs, since in each piece we can find the perfect composition between silk and wool strands that blend like a watercolor to landscapes.
blurred with unique color transitions.

Let's make your hat

Lesley Bohncke hats imprint personality and character on the wearer, due to their textures and colors, which emanate from the extraordinary, from art combined with classic elegance.


Its mission is to invite people to 'Live with Art', to live life as if it were your own work of art and make your style and way of dressing a manifesto to express the best of you.
Putting on a hat is a way of enunciating without having to speak.

In the manufacturing process, he returns to the rhythms of yesteryear, in which making a product from raw materials is like a type of meditation. Connect with that source of creativity that we all have, that place where time stands still and hands create alone. The hat is like the painting where it is expressed artistically with brushstrokes
made of wool, letting themselves be carried away by the colors, the soft touch, the water and the process of transforming loose fibers into a very resistant fabric without seams. Each piece is unique as well as who wears it.
