History

Established in 1980.

Haberdashery: [hab-​er-​dash-​uh-​ree] (noun): A specialty-​clothing store focused on accessory items such as hats, gloves and scarves.

Although a haberdashery originally meant an all-​purpose accessory and notions store it came to be associated in America almost exclusively with hats. In the heyday of hats the haberdashery was often seen as a serious place with rows and rows of identical hats lined up as identical soldiers of conformity.

These days hats have come to represent the opposite of blind conformity– they represent a confident style and a dashing personality. It is with this spirit that Hatbox has created the MODERN Haberdashery, we that honor the knowledge and art of the traditional haberdashery while knowing that a contemporary hat wearing public needs a friendly, helpful, and exciting introduction to the world of head wear. From our custom styles to our expert fittings we work with our customers to find the perfect hat with the perfect fit, entirely unique to you!
