I made this hat myself and was pleasantly surprised by it.

I get compliments on my hat all the time. People are often stopping me and asking me where I got it from when I say I made it myself they get really excited. I have had a lot of fun wearing this hat and can't wait to make one for you too!

More about this item

This flat cap is made using a pattern from DieselpunkRO on Etsy. It is made with 7/8 ounce vegetable tanned leather for the sweat band and brim, with 2/3 ounce vegetable tanned leather for the top. I sell these hats at farmer's markets for $100 each with an approximate 1 to 2 week lead time.
