Choosing a hat as a gift takes a little thought, it’s about matching style, personality, and practicality. A few things to consider: your recipient’s face shape, their height, and the way they like
to wear their hats. Here’s how to find the right one:
1. Consider their personal style
Think about what they already enjoy wearing. A classic fedora works well for someone with sophisticated, traditional tastes, while a soft beret or trilby might suit someone with a more modern, relaxed style.
2. Think of their lifestyle
Is it for winter walks in the countryside, walking the dog, festive gatherings, or smart city commutes? Everyday wearers might go for a flat cap or wool felt hat, while those dressing for special occasions could be drawn to a sculpted piece from our women’s couture collection. And those always on the go might prefer a rollable and packable option.
3. Choose the right fit
Fit is key to comfort and confidence. If you’re unsure of the size, our Lock & Co. Gift Card makes a thoughtful option, allowing the recipient to visit our St James’s shop in person or shop online with the help of our hat sizing guide.
4. Presentation counts
The last touch is the presentation. Although not every hat comes with our signature hat box, these can be purchased separately to add flair to your gift and make it ideal for placing under the tree or as a keepsake for years to come.
For 350 years, Lock & Co. Hatters has been shaped by the traditions that make a gift truly special; heritage, craft, and genuine care. This Christmas, choose something lasting, something made to be worn, appreciated, and remembered for years to come.
