A true work of art that defines headwear as a phenomenon, with in-depth knowledge and beautiful photographs.

The book explores headwear, hat-making, and cap culture from a Danish perspective.
A large coffee-table book featuring countless beautiful and colorful photos, as well as many whimsical stories and anecdotes woven together by Denmark’s only cap maker, Silas Skram. A book for the hat enthusiast, or for anyone who is simply fascinated by a good old-fashioned craft that is still being kept alive today.
