1961.
It started
with Dad's hat.
A simple hat. A lifetime of stories.
Bought in Leeds in 1961, my dad's cap has been with him for more than 60 years. It has travelled the world, been on countless adventures, and it has nearly been lost several times — but it always kept finding its way back.
It's just a hat, but it means a lot — and the thought of losing it was always heartbreaking.
Leeds, 1961.
Same hat.
Different places.
Still with us.
More than a hat.
Over the years, this cap has been on family holidays, work trips and countless adventures. It has been left behind in cafés, hotels and taxi seats, and somehow it has always found its way back.
To anyone else, it's just an old hat.
To us, it's irreplaceable.
That got me thinking.
We put our names on children's clothes.
We write phone numbers inside bags.
We attach luggage labels before a trip.
We do it for one simple reason:
we want the things that matter
to find their way back to us.
Owner's Mark is a modern version
of that simple idea.
A small mark. A big difference.
If something goes missing, the person who finds it simply taps the Mark with their phone. They can message you without your personal contact details being displayed publicly.
No app. No complicated tracking technology.
Just a simple way for a good person to do a good thing.
Keeps your

No app

Helps good
people do good
Gives your

Some things can be replaced.
Some things can't.
Owner's Mark was made for both.
