About the Brand:

In 1903, from their humble Manchester premises, they turned out a mere 25-dozen hats per week. Growing steadily, by the 1940s they were making 5,000-dozen hats per week, even finding time to contribute towards the war effort by hand-crafting flying helmets for the RAF and special equipment for commando frogmen.

When demand for their fur-felt hats began to dwindle in the 1950s, they could see the writing on the wall and already had a viable alternative ready when the market collapsed altogether.

Their fabric variants soon took off, winning favor both with the avant-garde and man in the street alike.

Today they are still concentrating on tomorrow, forever introducing new twists on ever-popular models, introducing next-generation fabrics, textures, and colours, always inventing, always progressing.
