Thank you kindly sir! Try to be 1% better every day. Not a day without learning and trying something new. Every custom order that is something different also tests the skills. Loving it.

Ah! Thank you kindly. Great input!
In terms of shape, both are different. The first one in gray has a shorter brim and the curve is a bit deeper. Second has a longer brim at 2.5 inch and also not as deep curve. I use a curling shackle, various styles, to make the initial shape then I extend the...
Update version of one the original SVEN HOMBURGS. It's been with me ever since I started making hats. Glad to have come this far with making homburgs.
Got an amazing Bowler coming up soon in 30X Beaver.
Thank you kindly sir. Take all the time you need. Planning and designing a hat is the most important and fun part of making hats. Let me know if there is any specific color that you are looking for, both felt and ribbon. Hope you have a great coming weekend!
Hi Karl,
Thanks for asking. I agree with you. Good to have a variety of hats. I am a keen collector myself. Akubra is just amazing. It's safe to say that the waiting time is around 8 - 9 weeks. I have been delivering earlier than expected for some orders, 1-2 weeks. Homburgs still tend to take...

One of my latest creations. IVAR HOMBURG. The hat is a bit larger size than the model head. Should have one coming up soon in light gray, but still working on it.

Mikael
Thanks for the recommendation! You are right! Will read that for sure. I had my back snapped back into place. Feels great already, doing proper exercises and feel better than ever. More tips are always welcome.
Hectic start of the year. Dealing with a bad back and filling orders. After January my back is better (10 years of working 12h/day, 6 days a week, standing up will do that) orders are more or less up to speed. Slight delays but you cant rush a creation that's 100% made by hand.
Taking the...
Just taking the opportunity to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
100X beaver, 30X Beaver Blend and Rabbit & Hare blend.
The work won't stop in the workshop over Christmas. Just too much to do at the moment. Feel free to send me a message at info@hufvud.com or through...
