Why Our Prices
The honest answer. The question we hear most: how can you sell the same hats for so much less? Here's the full, transparent breakdown — not a marketing line.
Where your money goes

Why we can do it
Production cost
The materials, construction and labour in a quality pair are a fraction of the boutique price. The rest is overhead and brand premium.
The retail mark-up
Brands add huge mark-ups to fund advertising, flagship stores and distribution across dozens of countries — you pay for all of it, whether you want to or not.
The Marcelia difference
We source directly through UA (unauthorised authentic) supply lines. Lean operating costs, and every dollar saved is passed to you at checkout.
