I am looking to replace my show hat and was wondering what people think are the best ones and where to buy them from. I want one that is neat with quite thin chin straps. Any help would be appriciated. Thanks

Hi Natalie - there is a new one out think it might be a Charles Owen that looks like a Patey but with a chin strap (Chloe is pestering me for a new one!!!) worth a look as it is a neat shape. Hope you are well. x

It's the CO Fiona, designed to be more slim line & with a slim leather harness!
Designer Browbands have them, approx £145 (depending what size you want).

Thats great thank you very much. Where i live now is only about 30 mins from Showing Selection so will give them a ring and have a ride up there. Mine has just gone so faded now and is starting to look a bit scruffy. Hope to see you all soon xx

Hi Nat - I have just bought Charlie a new Fiona from Designer Browbands and it is FAB - I tried it on and it is so comfortable and looks really good on! A bit pricey, but worth it (especially if his head doesn't grow any more!).

Refifsneke - could you post a picture of it being worn please? I struggle to find a hat that suits me so this may be the answer!

There is a lady on here that makes hats like the old Patey hats with leather harness they are very nice hats if you want a slim one , not cheap but you get a hat that is far superior than CO, available in any colour.
