The Barrington
Inspired by the oversized hats worn by toasters and cool rulers of the 70's reggae scene.
Barrington hats are handmade using traditional methods and techniques in our studio based in the historical town of Hastings, England. We source the finest quality felts from the best European manufacturers, to produce high quality hats at affordable prices that will last a life time.
The Homburg Barrington's are simply an open crown Barrington that has been shaped by us to the traditional Homburg style. Shipped with an open crown as standard and available in 5 luxurious felts.
Supplied open or shaped as requested when ordering
