The Hattery of Sonoma County — Attraction in Santa Rosa

I got the BEST hat in the world at the Portobello Hat Shop. The lady who runs it is incredibly nice; she totally gets that trying on a hat, finding the right hat, takes time and effort. She was so patient, and friendly without being intrusive, and helped me go through just about every hat in the store until I knew I had the right one. Her hats are all beautifully made and sized to really fit correctly. I found a Panama style, natural woven plant fiber hand shaped and lined.

The result? I’m over the moon with how it turned out. I’ll definitely be bringing more of my hats to The Hattery for future service...

Much love to everyone at the Hattery! As someone with an XL head it is a challenge to find a good hat. The kind folks here have made that process much easier! I’m wearing a custom made Shady Brady hat which is excellent, stylish, breathable and light weight. I bought a second Shady Brady in black, as well as a fabulous pork pie hat. My boyfriend just bought a fantastic Akubra fedora. They have hats to fit every budget and all of them are excellent for the price. Very fair. We even brought in a couple hats to be repaired and the turn around was quick! Much love to the Hattery, I will surely be...
