Eric Watson, the mastermind behind Watson’s Hats, gained a passion for hats when he was just a teenager, and went on to accomplish his dreams by opening his own store.

Eric’s passion is what has led to the level of detail that is put into each hat, “Each hat is cared for just the same as the next with precision and respect. At Watson’s Hat Shop we offer some of the finest blends of pure beaver, beaver blend and European Hare (i.e. rabbit fur felt). Also, you will find that we can make our hats from the finest Panama hat bodies (hand woven in Ecuador). You can choose from up to 34 different colors of hats, and various styles of ribbon with the choice of 7 different widths).
