A word about our Flanges…

Our 708 and 710 Flanges are modelled on two vintage brims;

Our 708 is from a (loaned) vintage, un-branded block and our 710 is a direct model of a Sotos Bros. style 817, 3” brim.

Our Hatters Flanges feature the same cord groove and will fit the most commonly used Flange stands (from which our Traditional Flange stand is a direct model) and feature the same washers on the underside to protect the block.

We believe our Flanges are better constructed than vintage brims and are expected to last as long, if not even longer than them.

We can also add a ribbon and bow recess to the inside of the Flange if desired, on request.

If you have a particular Flange style need, we can create one for you, based on either sketches provided by you or a sample.
