They seem to be an entirely new operation. Their house brand is "made in Canada" which I think can only mean Magill Hat Co. and in my opinion a BAD thing. I have never seen a Magill worth two wet farts. If someone out there has seen a nice product from them, do tell, 'cause I ain't seen nothing but total :censored:.
Their straws say USA made, but they are not the same Stetsons they once had as their house straws.

Made in Canada could be Biltmore, no?

Biltmore Canadian production ceased in early 2012, they were taken over by one of the US hat conglomerates based in Texas.

In addition to Magill the only other remaining hat manufacturer in Canada to my knowledge is Smithbilt.

:canada:
Me too, and Smithbilt is too small an operation to offer much volume.
Biltmore, no longer in Guelph after all those years, has been eaten by Hatco.
