TOPIKU
TOPIKU means “my hat” in indonesian. In 2014, while working at a non-profit in his home country of Indonesia, our founder Monty Hasan was given the opportunity to visit local villages and meet with artisans who crafted bags from upcycled materials. This inspired him to create TOPIKU.
Our hats are each handcrafted from upcycled and recycled waste materials, salvaged from landfills, that would otherwise add to Indonesia’s ever-growing problem of waste management. Why does trash have to look like trash?
