Photos of the Earland 'Bugatti' cap that arrived late last week:
Earland are hat shop rather than hatmakers. I don't know who supplies their other caps, but from the tweed pattern code on this one it's almost certainly made for them in Manchester by Failsworth. Nicely made anyhow. I like the extra visual volume the flaps give - useful when you're a big head
That's a nice one Richard. I like the color. The way the earflaps catch each other on top looks better than any others I've seen of that style. You'll have to put up a shot with flaps down!
Che I like the cut of the retrosport. Great looking cap! Good looking boys and hat tree too.
Great posts, guys - CHE, you never disappoint - your video is hilarious and adorable. The little ones look ready for Santa but I can see them wondering why all the nice caps are grown-up sizes - what gives?? You've got a great singing voice too, btw! Great Retro-Sport...
Richard - I L O V E that cap. The flaps look so cool on top. And I do like how they give added structure to the outline of the cap. Good purchase!
Keith, the kids have quite the collection of caps,,,
that hat tree in the video is just for there caps & fedoras..
little guys know to hang em there, even a little step stool to get the good ones on top..
as far as singing I have a good day job ill stick tooo though in the far past I was a Bowzer in a Do Wop band & did some Acapella
Richard,
nice one, not bulky on top at all & you are the King of Tweed.
I'm new to the site but I would appreciate your help finding a specific cap style. I believe it is called a single piece crown in a newsboy style or something like that. Basically a newsboy without the eight piece seams and without the button. These are hard to find as I have searched all the sellers posted in this thread and everything on ebay and ebay UK. I think this was common in the 20s but I may be mistaken. I have a photo of what I am searching for, any assistance would be appreciated. Hopefully it's not a custom made >$200 cap.
