Welcome to T P & H Trading Company, home of period headwear by Tim Bender.

With Hats by Tim Bender you get the following features:

All hats are pulled on blocks made By Tim with the styles dictated by actual period hats and photographic evidence. Each hat is made of 100% fur felt, and is finished out with a hand cut wide leather sweatband, either reeded (real reed..no trimmer line!) or unreeded depending on the style, the sweatband is handsewn to the hat at the rate of 8 stitches to the inch set very close to the edge of the leather, the hat is then fully lined with either 100% cotton or 100% silk material. Brim edge welting is done in the offset manner (common to the period) using cotton/rayon grosgrain ribbon. The crown ribbon is of the same material. Brim width and shaping may be at the customers choice within certain limits.
