Reborn Classics

This is where we started, buying classic hats and restoring them to their former glory. We have a wide range of top-quality hats of various makes, colours and sizes, from around the world.

Second Chance Classics

On the occasion where a hat is beyond restoration in it's original format, we will use the elements to remodel using the original felt with new ribbon, sweatband and our custom liner.

 

Please note the stock is constantly changing.

Checkout our YouTube channel to see some of our restorations and hat reviews.
