Djembe Hats
Having sewn hundreds of djembe hats over the years for amateur enthusiast to professional musicians all over the world, I am closing down this retail area of Color Conscious as of January 2023.
It’s been a pleasure to meet so many drummers online and in person. To the wholesalers, avid players, individuals buying a surprise gift, or students looking for a new accessory—from Tasmania to the Netherlands, and from all over the United States—thank you all for making these years worthwhile.
