House of Nines Design: 5/9/10

House of Nines Design is an independent maker of foxy, high-quality headwear for stylish men and women. We sell internationally online, in retail stores across the US, and direct to customers by appointment at our studio in New York City. We use a mix of traditional and modern techniques and only the best materials, including fine fur felts, hand-woven Panama straws, and rare vintage veiling and ribbon, sourced from other small businesses and artisans. All House of Nines Design hats are unique designs individually shaped and trimmed by hand in our studio. As you can imagine, our hats are time-consuming to make, but we approach it as an art and a labor of love.
