Peaky Hat sells traditional newsboy and flat caps online under founder Ryan Miller. The brand aims for premium quality at an accessible price and says it will not sell caps above $100. Miller described three pillars: improve quality without pricing out working-class buyers, make every customer touchpoint strong, and build a brand its partners, family, and customers are proud to support. In 2025, the business crossed $1 million in annual revenue profitably, with the milestone appearing on a dashboard on Thanksgiving Day. The interview describes coordinated work on product and packaging, website imagery, social content, paid advertising, and email. Miller said demand and the product foundation were already strong before he added an integrated agency relationship to help execute across channels. This is a founder-reported result in an interview hosted by the agency partner; no independent financial records are presented.
