Do you sell these splendid caps, Simonds? I bet you'd have more than a few customers among the FL crowd!

Great work Si. I especially like the octagonal shape, rather than just a round 8-panel. How deep are your bills, btw?

You might want to rethink the "reclaimed wool" tag. Technically that means it's recycled as fibers or yarns. What you have here is "repurposed fabric." You could bill it as "r.p. wool tweed," "r.p. wool houndstooth," whatever fits.

Very well put, I will use that info! I have a couple of different bill shapes, most difficult thing to make! A range from 2.5 - 4''

 

[Simonds]

And finally my new newsboy cap a bit closer...

Very nice job on the work wear and caps Hepville!

 

[Simonds]

Not sure how well this will go over here in the lounge but here is my latest cap, it's made with 50% hemp 50% linen. I used a silk polyester for the lining in this one.

Couple of pictures with me wearing it.
