Today we’d like to introduce you to Logan-Miles Allison.
Logan-Miles, please share your story with us. How did you get to where you are today?
Becoming “The Heart Hatter” was very random and truly a gift sent to me from above. My Me Maw (grandmother) blessed me with my first felt hat. It was so special to me! It was made of black beaver felt with an orange bandana wrapped around it! My hat made me feel confident, unique, and different! I wore it everyday until it was stolen from me! I was on a set shooting when a man on a bicycle snatched my hat and road off into the distance. I called my Me Maw and told her the news about the hat I loved so dearly. She told me ” you better learn how to make you a hat then!” I took her advise and taught myself how to make hats! I learned the history of the milliner and how to create a hat from top to bottom, which inspired me to create the most cared for, unique, detailed, and highest quality hat one can make!
At the time, a lot was going on! I was working on bringing the first high-end fashion show to Waco, TX as well as was working on my fashion line that was to be in the fashion event being planned! On top of that, I was running my “lifestyle” shop called Noggin Fuel!
It was at Noggin Fuel where I learned how to run a business! I learned the details/discipline of what it really took to start a business from nothing!
I ended up putting some Heart Hats in the fashion show and the hats were a hit! That is where it all started!
Blessings were then poured on Heart Hatter and the company took off!
We were blessed to be featured in the highest quality fashion shows as well as recognized on blogs, in magazines, and had the honors of winning some competitions!

The past year has been filled with learning and growth! I am so thankful for every situation I have been in!
Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
It has definitely been a puzzle! I say, “Just like life, business is a puzzle! Every day I get the opportunity to figure out a new puzzle piece. Some tasks/days are more difficult than others, but at the end of the day, I always learn something. I am blessed to be able to figure out what works, what does not work, and what piece I may need to move around.”
I have learned so much in the past year and I can not see my self ever stopping the growth and the molding of my craft! We are all creations of art and we are all creators of art. It takes time, discipline, details, passion, want to, trial and error, knowledge, faith, and love to create what we are supposed to create. It takes HARD WORK.
The road will never be easy. Haha, no such thing.
Please tell us about Heart Hatter.
The HEART HATTER brand is an unrivaled extension of who I am deep down. It is a way I can share my inner psychedelic uniqueness with the world. I believe all people are special and should have a great life experience. To me, it is very important for people to be authentic with who they are because there are no two people created the same! To me, authenticity is very important with experiencing who we truly are as humans! It is important to me that people give themselves the “OKAY” or the “I AM GOOD ENOUGH” to be comfortable with themselves. We all have to have confidence in what we do, or we do not shine to our potential! The HEART HATTER allows people the freedom to shine bright! This brand gets people to jump out of their comfort zone and feel special with who they are as a creation in this world.
Do you look back particularly fondly on any memories from childhood?
