About Witty Lids
Where humor meets headwear, and every hat tells a story
Our Story
It all started in 2019 when our founder, Joseph Carley, was having the worst day of his life. He'd just spilled coffee on his laptop, missed his bus, and walked into his office wearing two different shoes. But then he noticed his coworker's hat that simply read "Today is not my day" and couldn't help but laugh.
That moment sparked an idea: what if we could turn life's awkward, funny, and relatable moments into wearable conversation starters? What if a simple hat could break the ice, make someone smile, or just help you own your quirks?
Three years and countless laughs later, Witty Lids was born. We've helped over 50,000 people find their perfect comedic companion, from the brutally honest "I Pee in the Pool" to the aspirational "Pre-Rich."
Our Mission
We believe laughter is the best accessory. Our mission is simple: help people wear their personality, embrace their humor, and connect with others through the universal language of comedy.
Every hat in our collection is designed to spark joy, start conversations, and remind people that it's okay to not take life too seriously. Because sometimes, the best way to handle life's chaos is to put on a hat that says exactly what you're thinking.
