What is the best available bowler hat in London? Is it Lock's, which sells at an incredible premium? Who makes these? I read from an old Matt Deckard post that these have a furry finish, which appeals to me. -

I live in London and want to buy a flat cap. What is the best quality cap I can get (best quality, not lowest price)? Do I just go to Lock Hatters and ask for a cashmere Gill? -

Herbert Johnson Poet
Hello. I am a new member of a Magic Circle law firm. I recently purchased a number of essentials, but the partner I sit with suggested that I purchase a hat. I visited Swaine Adeney and the manager suggested that I not consider bowler hats and fedoras because the rules for formality have...
