Mad as a Hatter
After many years in business, The Hatter is still making waves in the haberdashery industry. Back in the day when hats were more mainstream ware, there were many hat retailers in the city. Those who are seriously looking to purchase a hat or cap should set aside a decent amount of time for a trip to The Hatter because they take hat fitting seriously. Each head is measured thoroughly by experienced staff, and then the hunt begins for the perfect chapeau. It is also rumoured that a few famous faces have been seen within The Hatter’s walls, so keep an eye out for celebrities while being fitted.
Keeping Hats Real
When one walks into The Hatter they encounter everything they would ever want in terms of hats and caps. The Hatter carries a load of different hat brands including Vocerlino and Builtmore. It is also one of the few places left where one can not only buy hats, but also have them revamped and cleaned. The art of millenary will not be lost so long as institutions such as The Hatter continue to keep their doors open.
The Many Years of The Hatter
The Hatter has been open since 1965 and they now have two locations (the second at Yonge and King) making it easier for those in the downtown core to access their services. Keeping true to the old-fashioned nature of the industry, The Hatter stocks classic styles like fedoras and poor boy caps. They also incorporate modern day designs to keep the stock at their shop eclectic and stylish. Whether a shopper is looking for a top hat for a wedding or something casual for lazy summer days, they should take a trip to The Hatter to see how an old haberdashery functions in the modern day.
