Sale at Lawrence & Foster


Lawrence & Foster, my capmaker of record, is offering several models on its web site at reductions from its already very reasonable prices.

A capmaker is a great asset, for otherwise excess tweed or linen need never go to waste. Half a meter makes one cap and six tenths makes two that will keep a man's head warm, shade his eyes. shed the rain (well, perhaps not the linen), and look good at the same time. And of course, L&F makes caps from their own material as well as that supplied by the customer.

Check them out.

Any experience trying to get a tailor, as in, one who generally makes suits, to make a cap? Are the skills involved so very different? I've got a flat cap like the one you've posted in mind, or as J. Peterman calls them, 'handsome thug caps.'

In my experience cap-making is a specialty and tailors send the work out.
