WHY IS IT THAT EVERY TIME I LOOK AT THAT GUY ALL I CAN SEE IS HANNAH MONTANA'S DAD SDFKMBVBJSFGSDF

[danielflanard]

He should be happy. He gets way more money than any hat maker of the past would've made and he also isn't going insane from mercury poisoning.

[gibbethoskins]

He's the perfect model for those style of hats

the lesson of this video:
set stuff on fire, it makes it look expensive

[bevwilkinson]

I loive in a town in France which had 16 felt hat factories in the 19th century. The amount of work and countless different steps are mind boggling!! It takes alot of skill to create these hats!!

“What makes these hats so expensive?”
It’s called luxury market, he makes the price high so he can sell it as a luxury item.

[shwker]

With all my TF2 experience, I can not disagree that setting hats on fire does make them more expensive.

[Ablors]

He must be the guy who makes the unusuals for Team Fortress 2

[akarna]

"it's a trade secret".. *shows a video detailing around 90% of the process.. 😄

[adiraodeda]

Of course it's expensive! Just what he pays alone for materials and equipment, and the time he puts into each one not to mention his artistic, classy talent for all he chooses and design. His hats are worth every dollar he charges.

“Utmost quality” shows a woman making a bow out of burlap.
