Learn the basics of traditional leatherwork through the process of making a leather hat. By the end of the course, you'll have completed your very own functional leather hat, ready to be worn and cherished, along with the skills to continue with leatherworking at home. Choose from many designs including a bowler hat, wizard hat, top hat, corset hat, Kepi, flat cap and more.
Under the guidance of experienced instructors, you'll learn the fundamental skills of leatherworking, including the use of patterns, cutting, shaping, and molding leather. Discover the various tools and materials used in the process, as well as the techniques needed to bring your hat to life. Throughout the course, you'll be encouraged to unleash your creativity, experiment with different styles, and make each hat uniquely yours.
This one-day course is taught in our fully-equipped leatherwork studio by one of our experienced leather workers. Asides from the skills and practice you’ll gain from the course, you also have the opportunity to ask an expert any questions you might have about starting out in leatherwork: sourcing supplies and tools, common beginner pitfalls, etc.
