Widebrims & Stingies, inc. Alpaca!

31/1/2024

A delivery of our fabulous Borges & Scott winter felt hats has just landed, restocking the (very) wide-brimmed hat and their own version of a stingy-brim trilby.

Both come in either wool felt or a deluxe alpaca-wool mix, and in sizes 54 to 62 (though we do find the sizing on these to be exceptionally generous). As a bonus, they are also crushable and water & stain resistant. The wide-brims are trimmed with a leather band and the stingies in a petersham ribbon.

Stop Press: as seen in the square image, they’ve also sent us a brand-new twist, with an all-black wool felt wide-brim decked in petersham (currently only available in size 58). NB: though it’s not a fedora (they have to scoop up at the back), if you’re a Terry Pratchett fan (there’s one here) they are the closest we’ve come to his enormous and iconic black hat. We love these!
