All pieces are lovingly hand-crafted both in the UK and Italy by specialist and highly skilled hat makers, whose craft has been passed down through the generations. The hats are built to last using age old blocking, forming, steaming and stitching techniques.

Spring/Summer 2015 at Tom Smarte combines classic sartorial detailing from 1950’s London blended with the casual elegance and colours of contemporary Malibu, California. This look is perfectly illustrated in the Tom Smarte series of luxury flat caps, crafted in a vibrant spectrum of silk patterned fabrics. These caps will effortlessly accessorise both formal business attire as well as complementing a more beachside and downtime look.

At the more casual end of the collection, chanelling a New York vintage vibe, soft cotton and canvas flat caps and newsboys add Tom Smarte personality to any look.

The brimmed section of the collection covers traditional Panama trilby and pork pie styles referencing an effortless cool blues and jazz style. Grosgrain trilbies with contrast brims or Panama fedoras with coloured trim, cotton canvas and coloured straws all add a fresh twist to the classics. The vented straw fedora with leather trim is set to be a Tom Smarte perennial favourite, as is the natural Panama Homburg which will instill film star confidence.
