Frequently Asked Questions

Sizing details

You can choose your size (if known) from the drop-down menu for each cap. From 6 1/2 to 8 1/2, we have your head covered!

If you do not know your cap size, you can simply measure your head where the cap band normally lies. (keep a finger tip under the tape so the cap isn't too tight!) Divide that measurement by 3.14 (pi) and your exact size will be the result!

We do make half sizes so feel free to contact me regarding your order if your cap size is say a 7 3/8+ or -.

If you have the need for a deeper cut cap, or a more shallow cut cap, submit your ear to ear measurement.

**Finally you found a place to make a cap to fit YOUR head. Like a fingerprint, no two heads are alike!

Yes! As long as the material in a normal cap material such as woven wool, cotton, linen, etc. The only leather we can use is very thin garment weight. No hair on leather either!
We have had customers send us their favorite shirt that may have passed the age of being worn out in public. They have it up-cycled into a custom made cap! So if you have that special piece of clothing that you hate to throw away or donate, have it made into a custom cap or two!

Custom and personalized orders

Back in 1989, living in a small 1800's schoolhouse in rural upstate New York, out side the small town of Cooperstown, I found my passion for caps. Working with several companies as a sub contractor, I produced many caps without my label on them.
Feeling a little left out of the cap spotlight,I threw caution to the wind and ventured out on my own. First, step was renting a tiny one car garage in downtown Cooperstown, behind the bakery, at the one street light in town. Then I moved my machines and fabric in and put a hand made sign up "HAND MADE CAPS $22".

The price has changed but the quality has only gotten better! Now handmade in Pennsylvania.
