Auction for a good cause: Stetson is delighted about international interest

As part of a charity initiative, Stetson Europe auctioned off three unique pieces that were created in collaboration with the French artist duo "The Feebles". Numerous bids were received for the hand-painted Stetson products until the auction ended on March 3, 2024.

Although the Stetson Fedora hat quickly emerged as the star of the auction, the Trucker Cap and the Hatteras also quickly found interested bidders. After an exciting auction finale, the final sum amounted to 872 euros.

Stetson was particularly pleased about the international interest, as the unique pieces will be going to three different countries - Germany, France and Italy. To make the auction a well-rounded affair, Friedrich W. Schneider GmbH & Co. KG - Stetson's European licensee - has decided to round up the donation amount to 1500 euros. The proceeds of the auction will benefit the organization "Aktion Deutschland Hilft". Aktion Deutschland Hilft is an association of renowned German relief organizations. In the event of major disasters and emergencies, they provide humanitarian aid abroad - together, quickly and in a coordinated manner. The alliance also helps with disaster preparedness. These aid projects help people to be better prepared for natural disasters and the consequences of climate change.

Henrik Freischlader: Three is not enough

People who know Henrik's collection from Stetson Styles think that 200 isn’t enough. The great blues musician owns far more than 200 hats & caps, after all. These already include three Stetson styles – two caps and a hat – that carry his name. Now the Stetson Rocks musician has designed a new Stetson Hatteras cap on the occasion of the tenth anniversary of his own record label: his fourth signature style! Specially manufactured for him, made of pure new wool with a herringbone pattern and an embroidered Cable Car Records label. “Made Especially for Henrik Freischlader by Stetson,” says the dark blue inner lining – and if you want, you can also wear his style: which is available here. By the way, you can watch a cool portrait of Henrik and his love for Stetson on YouTube.

Stetson goes one step further with the Kölner Haie

The new ice hockey season is about to start, and the excitement is growing. Excitement is high at Stetson, too – and we’re collaborating with the Kölner Haie team even more intensively than before! Eagle-eyed fans have already noticed a visible sign of the premium partnership: the new helmet design. The cool look was developed in collaboration with Stetson's art director from New York.

FWS managing director Klaus Kirschner takes up the Haie claim: “Now more than ever, we breathe ice hockey.” Haie managing director Philipp Walter thinks it’s great “that we not only share our convictions, but that we will also be able to expand our joint experiences going forward.” True fans can participate the intensive collaboration: The Haie shop now exclusively offers a Stetson trucker cap with a shark motif.
