Our know-how

Since 1962, Pipolaki has been creating collections of hats and accessories based on authentic know-how where tradition and modernity are mixed to offer unique quality, durability and comfort. Each of our pieces is developed according to precise requirements in terms of quality, yarns, tailoring and style. Through our collections, we want each of our accessories to accompany you comfortably and pleasantly beyond the season.

Pipolaki makes it a point of honour to offer a quality accessory at the right price. In order to achieve such a result, all the steps of our production, from the creation to the choice of our partners, are perfectly mastered. They are part of a quality, sustainable development and environmental approach and reflect Pipolaki's desire to create wearable accessories at an affordable price.

As lovers of beautiful pieces, we are convinced that the raw material is at the heart of a quality accessory. This is why Pipolaki carefully selects yarns and wools from the greatest Italian spinners whose expertise in fabrics has been recognised since the Middle Ages. To be chosen, the materials must meet several criteria: they must be soft to the touch, of high quality, comfortable, resistant to time and use. Several tests are carried out beforehand to ensure that they will not deform or pilling during use: their behaviour must be impeccable.

Behind each accessory is a recognized know-how and expertise. For the realization of our pieces, we collaborate with several production workshops with various knitting techniques and which perpetuate a traditional know-how. Each of them has unique expertise and equipment that allows us to produce a wide variety of shapes and styles. Pipolaki's DNA is reflected in many details that distinguish us from other manufacturers; indeed, many finishes are handmade such as the placement of rhinestones, the pom-pom, the sewn-on side cuff or the fleece that lined a beanie.

Pipolaki offers collections of hats, ponchos, scarves and gloves that combine beautiful materials, recognised know-how and an exclusive and innovative style. All our hats and accessories are created in France, near Bayonne in France, between the mountains and the ocean; they are inspired by our Pyrenean heritage, daily life, travels and the latest fashion trends detected by Paris style offices. This research and creation work aims to offer exclusive pieces, innovative cuts and to anticipate our customers' expectations. Each season, our collections evolve and are enriched with new styles and new pieces: 80% are renewed every year.

Pipolaki is committed to sustainable fashion and to making its creations more virtuous by minimising their environmental impact. This commitment is put into practice on a daily basis through multiple actions such as selecting only recycled materials, preferring local manufacturing by choosing France and Italy as the countries of choice, etc. Today, the recycled materials such as wool, cashmere, viscose and polyester chosen by us will always provide you with the guarantee of an elegant, comfortable and high quality piece while respecting our planet. And because eco-conception is over our hats and accessories, all the markings, interior labels and packaging are also made from recycled materials.
