Waxed Cotton Flat Cap
The flat cap, built for weather. It keeps the same low, traditional shape, the short stitched-down peak and the clean curved crown, but cuts it in waxed cotton, the rugged, weather-resistant cloth of the British countryside. Where the wool herringbone is for town, this is the one you reach for when the sky looks uncertain.
Waxed cotton has a character all its own. It shrugs off a light shower, softens and creases as you wear it, and only looks better with age, picking up the marks of where it has been. Pair it with a field jacket and boots, or a knit on a grey morning walk. Practical, understated, and quietly handsome.
Made to be worn hard and kept for years, in the spirit of buying fewer, better things. A working cap, not a fashion piece.

Judged in the hand, not on a screen.
Every piece in the range is chosen the old-fashioned way: by handle, weight and finish. Honest wools and tweeds with proper depth of colour, herringbones that catch the light, linings that sit flat and stitching that holds its line.
It is a slower way to build a range, and a smaller one. We think that is rather the point. Cloth like this softens and settles with wear, which is exactly what something worth keeping should do.
