Aukala The Rebellion of Wearing Art

Welcome to Aukala - Where Craftsmanship Meets Expression

Founded in the vibrant spirit of Tulum, Aukala is not just a brand but a testament to creativity, style, and personal narrative. It all began when I, Raffaello Criscuoli, met Catalina Vásquez, amidst the captivating energy of Tulum. What started as a chance encounter evolved into a journey fueled by passion for artisanal craftsmanship and the desire to redefine hat fashion.

Joined by my friend and co-founder Rodrigo Gaete, an architect and digital entrepreneur, we envisioned Aukala as more than a hat brand; it's a canvas for self-expression. Our hats are meticulously crafted by skilled artisans in Tulum, each piece imbued with a story and the essence of Latin American craftsmanship.

At Aukala, we curate materials with meticulous care, ensuring each hat meets our standards of premium quality. From the initial concept to the final stitch, our commitment to detail and design excellence shines through in every hat we create. Whether you're exploring our collection online or visiting our Miami storefront, our team is dedicated to helping you discover a hat that not only complements your style but also tells your unique story.

Join us in embracing the rebellion of wearing art. From the sun-kissed shores of Latin America to the vibrant streets of Miami, Aukala invites you to express your individuality with hats that blend tradition with contemporary flair. Step into a world where every hat is a statement, and fashion becomes a celebration of craftsmanship and personal style.
