Hornskov Hats - custom Danish hatter

[Samson25]

Wow shoe ! What an awesome color combination, looks almost like something retro/ vintage. Really like this hat!
p.s. great pictures too.

Here’s our full Hornskov collection.

Back middle: Wool Centre Dent. I bought this as a kind of trial for my first custom hat.
Back left: Beaver felt Broker in Camel with a Moss ribbon. My 2020 Christmas present.
Back right: Etsuko’s 2020 Christmas present. A beaver felt Author in Camel with a Wine ribbon.
Front left: Beaver blend Mogul in Natural with a dark brown ribbon.
Front right: Western weight beaver blend Rancher in Stone with a Dusty Rose ribbon.
I’m not sure if there will be any more, but I do love these hats.
Etsuko loves the quality and feel of hers, but is not entirely happy with the shape - the brim was flatter than she likes. We’ve added some shape with steam, but she’s still not 100%. We’re considering an Indy Turn.

Hello. Just received a beautiful steel blend Redaktor with forest ribbon. Felt feels great and pliable - the style is like a soft homburg. Thanks.

Looks great. Feel free to post more photos of it from several angles: I know many of us would like to see more.

Steel blend…does that make it an alloy?
Sorry, I couldn’t help myself.

Congratulations. I’ve seen the Redaktor on his Facebook page several times. I really like the way it looks, but I’ve promised myself that if I do get another Hornskov, it won’t have a pencil curl.

Congrats! Love the hat but not sure if the pencil curl brim edge treatment is my thing.

That's the beauty of a custom hat, you can order it to your liking.

Hi Steve, yes...the custom thing is.... I think this is the direction I'm going.
The Redactor Bash and front pinches I find are almost radical in character. I am sure the redactor gets some comments. It polarizes...
I like it alot !

Ja, I love it's 1930s/40s New York journalist look.

It's my New Year's resolution to order a Hornskov. Don't tell Gary @The Shoe though, he'll just rag me about it

Etsuko & I had a Hornskov day while the lounge was down.
She wore her “Low“ Author…

… I, my “Low“ Rancher.

I hope Hornskov start paying you two for your modelling, Gary.

I'm definitely going to mention your names once I get round to ordering one.

Thanks Steve. I think I’m one behind Marcel, but the same number with Etsuko‘s hat included.
No cheques in the mail from Hornskov as far as I’m aware.
Their prices went up a while ago, which I guess can’t be helped, but I was shocked to find that the points system had changed and I no longer qualified for the 25% discount. Peter was very good, though. When I talked to him about it, he said, without any hesitation that he’d add 1000 points to my account so I could get the discount. Not being sure if or when I could get another at the new prices, I got two at the discounted price.

Hi Guys...
So here it finally is...
My first Hornskov and first bash attempt.
This is a Molbech in Steel with Sand (petersham) ribbon.
(Still calling it my first custom regardless of what anyone thinks! )
The Molbech came as open crown.
I like the way the bash turned out, will bring the brim down in the front.
A couple of things here...
The whole Hornskov experience was pleasant.
Packaging, shipping, presentation were all top notch.
I have never felt/ touched such a felt before.
Yes, I do like the feel and finish ( 50/50 mix ).
If I have anything to nit pick about, then it is with the depiction of the ribbon color.
(This may have something to do with color depiction Re; my laptop or other)
The ribbon is called sand, has a very slight olive tinge to it...or maybe I'm getting color blind.
Anyway, I do love the hat and my first Hornskov experience !
Hope you enjoy my Pics !

Looks super, Samson25. The ribbon looks sand coloured to me.

Hi Steve ! Thanks.
Yes, it is Sand. I am certainly happy with the steel/ sand combination.
I also like how the color steel has a hint of blue in it. Thanks !

Photographing ribbon is fraught with difficulty. It reflects light so differently that it is impossible to get it accurate. I had the good fortune to snag 100 yards of beautiful silk blend Slate coloured grosgrain ribbon from my supplier . She gave it to me..gratis...as she tired of customer complaints that the colour they received was different than her listing. She gave up and gave it away.
