Our Story

Welcome to Lead Head, The Thinking Cap Co!

I’m Troy, I have been a carpenter for 12 years now and run my own carpentry business so I am hard on the tools every day, like you!
I have done it all from new builds, renovations and custom furniture. I have always had a creative side and enjoyed finding ways to make jobs easier and less time-consuming.

This hat was initially designed to solve the problem of wanting my pencil behind my ear but when wearing earmuffs I couldn’t put my pencil there.

When at a friend’s auto upholstery business we decided to play around with some ideas and instantly we liked this idea of a pencil on our hats. This led to many months of prototyping and trying out different designs and materials, which led to this absolute beauty of a tradie hat, that you see here today. We won’t stop here! We hope to have a range of different hats for different trades and hobbies, the sky is the limit and we will keep on thinking and expanding as we grow!

Thank you so much for supporting my small business and supporting local!
