I Found A Hat Shop In Tucson, Arizona!

I recently made a trip to Tucson, Arizona. I had only a couple of hours to do a little sight seeing. I decided to look up in the yellow pages to see if there was at least one Hat Shop that hopefully offered some real to goodness hat services. The type we all look for when our lids need a little TLC like cleaning, re-blocking, ribbon replacement and sweat band replacement. Eureka I found one in the little time that I had to sight see while I was in Tucson.

The place is called Arizona Hatters. I ended up staying almost two hours talking with the woman who was working at the place. I found out that they do clean and re-block hats and she was the one who does all of the work on the hats. The store mostly sells cowboy hats but they do have a limited selection of fedoras. I just happen to have my camera with me and I was able to take some pictures to share with everyone on the FL. Here they are and I hope you all enjoy them.:D

Cool pics! Did you teach her about some panamas?:D

I did ask her if she would work on Panama Hats. She replied No Way to hard to work with :eek: I send them down to Bisbee. Then she added that she didn't have any Panama blocks. But the shop did have some Cuenca Panama Cowboy hats.

That is something I would like to see as opposed to the paper straw cowboy hats.
