Restoration of a lost Stetson film
Wow Matt, that was great! I am pretty sure that just became my favorite hat video. I like to joke about asbestos hands from working with the felts and steam all day, but I've got nothing on those guys. Between the guy hand felting, the vats and vats of boiling water and those steam and water... -
Roy Rogers Quick Shooter Hat
I going to be honest here, I think I want one! To bad they won't come in my size. -

Black Sheep Hat Works
I believe O.G. is refering to our Facebook page. It is a faster method to get photos up on a regular basis and a good portion of new customs end up there. Its worth a look if you get a chance. Keep an eye out on the website though, I am looking at having a few new things up in the coming week. Bob -

Nutria felt in the modern day
And when it comes to abusing hats... well, I have yet to have a hatter tell me I have an equal. There is something about that statement that just makes me smile. -

Black Sheep Hat Works
Thanks again for the kind words guys. I do want to make sure I don't get too much credit for that ribbon though. This one was a special request by O.G. and it is modeled after a hat he already owns. If I am not mistaken, I believe the the original was put together by Art, so I believe Mr... -
THE MALLORY MILE
"Not a hat" So what! I would kill for a great find like that. Besides being a hat nut, I have a pretty unhealthy vintage watch addiction. Great find! The lugs design is really nice. If you put a brown leather strap on that, like an ostrich or calf skin, this watch could stop traffic. -

How It's Made TV show
Well I am good at messing up a link. Just go to the Optimo site and click on "hat making". There are a few videos there that are cool to watch. I suppose its not the norm for one hat maker to advertise another, but I feel there is plenty of work for all of us and good work should be noticed. I... -

Holy Smokes! I didn't think this hat would spark such a conversation. Thanks for such kind words everybody! I think the credit surely belongs to David for having an awesome idea. Orders like this one are what makes me love my job. As for the ribbon, my vote would obviously be to keep it... -

Your Hat Addiction...and your spouse
Hey J, when my misses starts to make comments, I always turn one out in her size and then offer to to her. She always say "really one for me?''. This usually gives me a bit of a break form the hat comments. I figure that she is just as big as a hat nut as myself. I like to think its her subtle... -
Rum Diary hat on the bay
I 'll be interested to see if they get the price for this one. Goodness knows we all love Depp in a hat. On looking at it closer I do see the "wrinkle" in the front that shows on the poster. I wasn't doubting it , just curious. I see initials in the sweatband, which always intrigue me. If...
