The RAMSBOTTOM. Named for one of the villages I can still see from the workshop window.

A close-cut driver in cotton — sits snug, stays put in the wind, made for the everyday.

One size, adjustable — 21½ to 24 inches (55–61 cm). Soft cotton lining, steady on the head, no fiddling.

The last of the stock, and no more coming. When it's gone, that's the end of it. — Edmund

A note from the bench

A Note From the Bench

I know a heritage cap is a considered buy — so here's the plain truth. I'm closing my workshop for good. After a lifetime at the bench, my hands and eyes have had enough, and there's no lad to take it on.

What's left is what you see: the last caps I'll ever cut, each one named for a village I can see from my window. I'd sooner they went on good heads than sat in a dark box in my garage.

When they're gone, they're gone — I'm not making any more.

Worn by good men, on both sides of the Atlantic

A few notes from men who took one home before the workshop closed for good.

ugc 01

Turned up in six days, nicer than I expected. Sits low and looks the part — no complaints.

Jamie P.

ugc 02

Bought two and I'm glad I did — the tweed one's become my everyday cap. Proper quality.

John L.

ugc 03

Well cut, sits low, exactly like the photos. Feels like a cap that'll last years.

Emma R.

ugc 04

I'm a sceptic. Ordered one to test it. The quality's the real deal — going back for the tweed before they're gone.

Daniel K.

ugc 05

Bought three as gifts. Everyone thinks I spent a fortune on them — beautifully made.

Sarah M.

ugc 06

Ordered it, arrived tracked in a week. Easy decision and a lovely cap.

William M.

ugc 07

The quality is far nicer than I expected. The stitching's proper — you can feel the hand in it.

Thomas S.

ugc 08

Grabbed mine before it sold out — he genuinely isn't making more. Glad I didn't wait.

Alex O.

ugc 09

My new everyday cap. People keep asking where it's from — chuffed with it.

Olivia W.

ugc 10

Came faster than half the stuff I order these days. Packaged well too.

Michael B.

ugc 11

A kind way to close a workshop — a proper cap that goes to a good head. I'm in.

Grace L.

ugc 12

Ordered one for me and one for my dad. Two happy men — he wears his everywhere.

Joseph C.

ugc 13

Ordered on a whim and no regrets. Fits right, looks right. Done.

4 Reasons to Wear a Fell Cap

Take a look — this is why a proper cap beats a baseball cap.

Cut the Slow Way 1

Cut the Slow Way

Every panel shaped by hand to sit low and hold its line — a proper flat cap, not a costume and not a baseball cap.

Cloth That Ages Well 2

Cloth That Ages Well

Wool, tweed, cotton and denim chosen to soften with wear and last for years — not fall apart after a season.

Made to Be Worn Every Day 3

Made to Be Worn Every Day

The cap you reach for without thinking — it goes with everything and earns its place on the peg by the door.

The Last of the Bench 4

The Last of the Bench

I'm closing the workshop for good. Rather than box these up, I'd sooner they went on good heads — once they're gone, they're gone.

OUR MISSION

The last of the caps from my bench.

I'd rather every one went on a good head than sat in a dark box. — Edmund

Our Story

I never planned to make caps. I planned to leave the Dales as fast as my legs would carry me. But the summer I turned twenty-two, my uncle sat me down at his bench, put a pair of shears in my hand, and said, “Cut slow.” I've been cutting slow ever since.

Now I'm closing the workshop for good.

I named every cap for a village I can see from my window — Kendal, Malham, Settle. Places that made cloth long before I made caps. I'm one man, a pair of hands that aren't as steady as they were, and a workshop gone quiet. These last caps are the last there'll be — and I'd rather they went to good heads than a dark box.

    FAQs

    Every cap is one size, adjustable — 21½ to 24 inches (55–61 cm). A band inside dials in the fit and holds it. If you're between sizes, the newsboy cuts are a touch more forgiving.

    No trouble. You have my 100-Day Fit Guarantee — wear it in, and if it doesn't sit right, email me and I'll make it right. Even now the workshop's closing.

    Cut and shaped the slow way — panel by panel — in wool, tweed, cotton, denim, linen and leather chosen to age with character. Each is named for a village near my workshop.
