Our Story

Tobacco Road Apparel first came about on a camping trip between two life long friends from Sampson and Duplin county in rural North Carolina. On this hot and mosquito riddled summer night we came up with the idea of making leather patch hats that tailored to the wide array of lifestyles found in NC. From the mountains to the coast, our goal has always been to make affordable, professional, and unique hats that people are proud to wear. An engineering student and a business student, we combined our knowledge and skillsets to prototype, design, create, and market our leather patch hats to capture the true essence of southern living lifestyles. We pride ourselves that all patches are produced in house locally and we seek to work with other locally owned businesses.
