A hat is a physical expression of your style and uniqueness. To have your own custom hat is a statement about you and is one of a kind; just like you. It will be a timeless staple of your wardrobe and a cherished piece of your personal history. You will work with your hat makers Kay, Sam & Britt to design and build your perfect hat!
The process in which a custom handmade hat is made is based around communication between the maker and the client. The idea when we start the process is to have a good understanding of not only your size, but also your color and style preferences. We will be communicating with you throughout the process to ensure we are achieving your desired look for the hat.
