About Shebobo

Founded in 2011 in San Francisco by designer Kirsten, Shebobo began with a simple vision: to create beautiful, high-quality straw hats that celebrate craftsmanship and color.

In her search for the perfect place to bring this vision to life, Kirsten discovered the extraordinary artistry of Madagascar’s traditional weaving techniques. She was captivated by the vibrant raffia hues, the meticulous handwork, and the deep sense of community among the artisans. After traveling to Madagascar to meet the craftspeople in person, a lasting partnership was born.

Over a decade later, Shebobo continues to collaborate directly with these skilled artisans. Kirsten returns to Madagascar to connect with the makers and explore new designs.

What began with handwoven straw hats has since grown into a full collection of bags, sandals, and home decor, all crafted from natural fibers and made by hand with care. Every Shebobo piece carries the warmth of Madagascar’s craftsmanship and the easy elegance of coastal California style.

Whether you’re strolling the farmer’s market, lounging seaside, or jetting off to your next getaway, Shebobo brings effortless style to every sunlit moment.

Thank you for supporting handmade artistry and the vibrant community of makers who bring each design to life.
