What is Cocky Hat Company?
Cocky Hat Company was born on the golf course. What started as Cocky Golf was more than just a brand - it was an attitude. It’s about being confident in who you are, not taking life too seriously, and having fun along the way. We brought that spirit to the course, reminding golfers that nobody behind you really cares where your ball goes. So relax, swing, and enjoy it.
As the brand grew, so did our vision. That same playful, confident mindset doesn’t stop at the fairway—it belongs everywhere. That’s why Cocky Golf is now just one of our signature lines under Cocky Hat Company, alongside youth collections, sports designs, and more.
No matter the category, our mission stays the same: to create hats that bring personality, confidence, and a little bit of cockiness to your everyday life.
Cocky Hat Company started with a simple idea: confidence, fun, and a little bit of cockiness make everything better. We believe hats should reflect that spirit and bring personality to whoever wears them.
Our founder, Gerrid, picked up the game of golf at 8 years old, something he enjoyed most with his family. From the very beginning, golf was about connection, confidence, and fun - not pressure or perfection.
That same attitude now drives our whole family. With three kids who are busy playing their own sports, we’ve seen firsthand how that blend of confidence and fun carries over from the course to the rink, the field, and the stage. The kids love being part of the creative process, helping with designs, giving feedback, and adding their own unique perspective.
Cocky Hat Company is more than just a brand; it’s a labor of love that brings our family’s passions and energy into something we’re excited to share. We’re here to bring personality and confidence to every hat.
Inspiration Behind the Brand
Cocky Hat Company was inspired by Gerrid’s late father, Terry. An avid golfer with an unmistakable sense of style, Terry passed down more than just a love for the game. He believed in playing smart, taking each shot with purpose, and remembering that you don’t have an opportunity to score if you leave it short of the hole.
Those lessons shaped the foundation of our brand. Terry showed us that golf, like life, is about enjoying the moment, embracing who you are, and looking good while doing it. His influence is woven into everything we create, from the playful designs to the spirit of confidence behind every collection.
Cocky Hat Company is our way of carrying that legacy forward. We are taking the passion Terry had for golf and expanding it into a brand that inspires people everywhere to live stylishly and have fun while doing it.
