Recently, our friend Nick from Knot Clothing and Belt Co. suggested we look into a small company called Harding-Lane.  He told us that we would really like their hats, and he was right.  It has been a long time since we have seen a hat that was truly different than others on the market without being something ridiculous, and Harding-Lane has come up with something we really like.  Their Needlepoint Hats ($24.99) are definitely a great idea.

Founded in 2009 by a brother/sister team in New England, Harding-Lane was finally able to introduce their hats to the market just this year.  With four offerings currently available, the company is still relatively small, but their product is unlike any we have ever seen.  Sure, most companies have hats that feature a “washed” look, but how many can say they have a needlepoint design?  Other than Harding-Lane, we don’t know of any.  Beyond the needlepoint designs, which we love, each hat also features an adjustable sailcloth strap that is a great compliment.  While we are partial to the Crab design, you can’t go wrong with any of Harding-Lane’s offerings should you decide to place an order.
