Welcome to Derby Club

Our Story

Derby Club was born from a love of tradition, legacy, and the thrill of the track. As a couple who grew up near the historic Saratoga Racetrack, horse racing has always been woven into the fabric of our lives. Our grandparents passed down stories of their days at the track and their passion for the sport, sparking a deep appreciation for its legacy and timeless traditions.

There’s nothing quite like race day - the buzz of the crowd, the energy in the air, and the sense of anticipation. That feeling is what drives us.

Today, Derby Club is more than a hat brand. We love collaborating with racing stables, horse tracks, racing organizations, and events to bring custom hat ideas to life. Whether you have a vision for your next race-day hat, want to showcase your stable or organization, or are looking for something completely original, we work closely with you from concept to creation.

We love getting creative, taking what you envision, and elevating it into something you’re proud to wear. From the initial design to the finished hat, our goal is to create something that feels authentic to you, your brand, and the racing community. 

Our Mission

At Derby Club, our mission is to create timeless hats that can be worn on and off the track. We are a lifestyle brand that honors horse racing’s legacy with tradition, style, and spirit - reimagined for a new generation.

We believe the details matter, especially when they carry meaning. That’s why our signature horse logo incorporates 75 lines, symbolizing the first Kentucky Derby, held in 1875. It’s these thoughtful details and connections to racing’s history that make our pieces more than just hats, they become a part of the story.

More importantly, we want our pieces to bring people together and create a sense of community around the sport we love. From jockeys and trainers to owners, industry professionals, and fans in the grandstand, Derby Club is for everyone who shares a passion for racing. We want to connect people through the sport, the culture, and the traditions that make racing so special, while becoming a go-to lifestyle brand for the track and beyond.

We’re only at the starting gate, and we’re so excited to bring you along for the ride!
