About Us

As we noticed mountain towns were becoming overcrowded with generic and stale mountain designs, Proctor Co. set out rejuvenate the industry. How? By finding local artist to create one-of-kind designs reminiscent of old skool skiing.

-

The concept began in 2021 when the founder Nick McGuinness had the idea for a mountain brand that was truly influenced by locals, their lifestyle, and by the natural beauty of the place they call home. In 2022, Proctor Co. was launched with a small release of hats for destinations across California, Utah, Colorado, Idaho, and Montana.

Focused on delivering consistent quality, Proctor Co. produces in small batches. Limited production allows us to limit waste and offer new unique products each season.

The Proctor Co. name derives its name from both people and place. First, it's an ode to the local people who live in the mountain towns of the American West. It's the locals who give the town life and keep it running. They are the caregivers or "proctors" of these beautiful places. Second, the name is a nod to Proctor Mountain - home of the first chairlift ever built located in the Sawtooth Mountains of Idaho.
