If you’re ever in Venice, Ca and need a hat to block you from the shade check out The Wise Hatter At 230 California Ave. Brandon Wise, the mad hatter behind the brand, will costum fit and craft a one of a kind lid to your specifications.
“ Every creation is an extension of his vision while simultaneously inspired by his clients. All Wise Hatter hats are purpose-made and hand-crafted using the finest fur felt and leather available and are built to last generations. From fashion to function, these hats are made to go everywhere. In Native American culture, the arrow symbolizes protection and two crossed arrows represent friendship. The arrow is prominent throughout Brandon’s designs, partially inspired by his Native American heritage and also influenced by the personal connection and friendship he makes with each of his clients.”
