There's a Master Hatter inconspicuously crafting his own special brew of magic downtown Manhattan, smack-dab in the middle of The legendary Bowery, New York
Fashion is as eternal as the human need for clothing. But hats remain a discretionary element in the modern age. A hat today reflects the true essence of its wearer far more than does a pair of fitted trousers, shoes or a tailored jacket. To wear a hat is a genuine statement of character and personality in our times, and the boldest among us seem to lead, quite literally, with their heads.
From the superfine, centuries-old Ecuadorian panamas to the refined handcrafted felt hats, we are committed to satisfying each of our patrons and their unique needs. And because our product is handmade, your satisfaction is guaranteed. We stand firmly behind our product and craftsmanship while looking to meet the expectations of every single one of our clients.
