LABOUR OF WILD
Labour of Wild hats are meticulously handcrafted by hat maker Lisa Uphill using a traditional alchemy of heat, steam, pressure, and fire. Equipped with vintage tools and wooden hat blocks, she transforms the rough hat bodies into wearable works of art by blocking, shaping, and finishing them by hand.
Lisa uses premium-quality fur felt known for its fine finish and longevity, ensuring each hat is a lasting investment. Every hat is fitted with a soft leather sweatband and lined with satin for comfort and elegance. With a creative flair, Lisa trims each piece with a contemporary design approach, making every creation a unique heirloom, made to be cherished for a lifetime.
Specialising in custom made hats, it’s only when creativity strikes that Lisa’s ready-to-wear hats become available. This collection showcases a range of styles and limited designs which due to vintage decorative materials sourced, may not be possible to recreate. So, if the hat you love fits, snap it up!
If your size isn’t available or this collection sparks an idea for your dream hat, get in touch with Lisa at Labour of Wild to begin your own custom hat journey.
