Size Guide

Our hats are handcrafted using vintage hat blocks, so sizing may vary slightly by shape and material. To determine your head circumference, use a garment measuring tape or string and wrap it around your head one finger above your ears and eyebrows, meeting at the widest point at the back. For the most accurate fit, we suggest measuring three times.

The Kibuye handmade cowboy hat is inspired by stillness and strength. It embodies the calm beauty of Lake Kivu, where nature's peace meets quiet resolve. Made from 100% Australian wool, it holds a firm, structured crown and a clean wide brim. Additionally, a band of artisan beads, made by hand in Rwanda, wraps the crown. Because no two bands match exactly, every Kibuye handmade cowboy hat is one of a kind.

For example, wear it with soft neutrals for a calm everyday look. Likewise, bring it to festivals, concerts, and weekend trips. Meanwhile, the adjustable inner band keeps the fit secure and comfortable all day.

Kibuye at a glance:

  • 100% Australian wool with a structured cowboy crown
  • Artisan bead band, handmade in Rwanda
  • Adjustable inner band for a secure fit
  • One-of-a-kind — no two bead bands are identical

Caring for your hat is simple. First, spot clean it with a soft damp cloth. Then let it air dry away from direct sunlight. If the crown bends during travel, simply restore the shape with a gentle steam. Finally, store the hat in a hat box to keep the brim crisp.

Above all, every Kibuye handmade cowboy hat supports Rwandan artisans through fair partnerships. In short, choose style that looks good and does good.

Details & Material Care
Details & Material Care

Rujeni hats are bold, handcrafted statement pieces made with carefully selected fabrics and artisan-made beads. Each design blends modern style with timeless artistry, making every hat a unique accessory for everyday wear, events, concerts, festivals, and special occasions.

All hats include an adjustable inner band to help you achieve a secure and comfortable fit. Rujeni hats run true to size; if you are between sizes, we recommend sizing up.

To care for your hat, spot clean gently with a soft damp cloth or gentle brush. For odor, lightly dab the inner sweatband with mild detergent or white vinegar mixed with water, then allow the hat to air dry in a well-ventilated area. Avoid direct sunlight for long periods, as it may fade colors or damage the material.

Do not machine wash, soak, or fully submerge your hat in water. When traveling, avoid packing your hat tightly in a suitcase. Wear it or store it in a protective hat box to help maintain its shape.

If the crown becomes bent, use a steamer gently to help restore its shape. If any beads become loose or break, please contact us for assistance.
