About Baja Montecito

Welcome to Baja Montecito, a family-owned luxury headwear brand dedicated to crafting timeless pieces that embody the unique character of Montecito. Our journey began with our grandfather, long-time Montecito resident Wayne Siemens, who inspired a vision to celebrate the stories of Montecito's early days, dating back to 1890. To bring this vision to life, we have partnered with Santa Barbara Vintage Photography to share images and stories including those of renowned 20th-century film photographer J. Walter Collinge. With a goal of bringing our community together, a portion of our profits are donated to the Santa Barbara Bucket Brigade, a non-profit organization founded in response to the Montecito mudslides which is dedicated to keeping our community safe.Read their story
