Since 1855, Guerra has been handcrafting exceptional hats in its Piedmont workshop. As the heir to a craftsmanship passed down through generations, the Italian house blends tradition and innovation, creating headwear that embodies timeless elegance and impeccable quality.
Guerra 1855, an Italian Legacy
Founded in 1855 in Borgosesia, at the heart of Piedmont, Guerra 1855 is today the oldest hat-making workshop still in operation in Italy. For over 170 years, the Guerra family has perpetuated a unique artisanal savoir-faire, crafting hats entirely by hand in their Valsesia valley workshop.
From generation to generation, the house has preserved the precision of traditional craftsmanship while integrating noble materials and innovative techniques. Merino wool felt, cashmere, alpaca, or technical fabrics: each creation embodies the balance between tradition and modernity, offering headwear of timeless elegance.
A Lifestyle in Hats
The creations of Guerra 1855 are not mere accessories, but true style companions. Whether it is an Outback Hat designed for adventure, a Fedora Hat with bold lines, or a more classic model of Men's Hat or Women's Hat, each piece tells a story of character and refinement.
The hat-making workshop, which has captivated prestigious fashion houses and filmmakers worldwide, designs its hats as "felt sculptures": crafted volumes, meticulous finishes, and a perfect balance between comfort and style.
Tradition and Innovation
While Guerra 1855 has remained true to its artisanal roots, it has also evolved with the times. The introduction of precision machinery, such as ultrasonic sewing, has expanded creative horizons while ensuring impeccable quality.
Even today, Guerra hats continue to shine far beyond Piedmont, captivating discerning enthusiasts and collectors worldwide. Between heritage and modernity, they embody an Italian vision of style, where elegance is lived daily.
