Our Story: Crafting Hats That Tell Yours.
Tellez Mercantile Hats—pronounced “Te‑yez”—TM for short—is a mother–daughter studio dedicated to crafting handmade hats that embody & celebrate individuality, empowerment, and legacy.
WHY WE CREATE
We believe a hat is more than an accessory—it’s a statement of identity. Each Tellez Mercantile piece is designed to reflect your story, your style, and your roots. Whether for daily wear, a special occasion, or creative expression, our hats are crafted to make you feel seen and celebrated.

Roots
This capsule offers an inside look at the craftsmanship behind custom hats made for Houston legends, celebrating how their roots, stories, and cultural impact continue to shape the city’s creative movement.
Our journey began with the values instilled by our family matriarch: honor your heritage, work with care, and create with purpose. Every hat we design carries that spirit forward—blending tradition with imagination to empower the person wearing it.
