Mister Miller has been making hats for over 30 years: what started as a stint of work experience at the tender age of 14 went on to become a skill he learned to master and enjoy.

Miller remembers helping his father work from home making clothes. “The bobbin was winding side to side, super fast on a lovely old vintage Singer sewing machine, I was 12 years old and that was when it all started. It would be blouses, skirts, ski-pants (I know) … but I do remember making my first hat. It was a promotion for Tour de France and Michelin tyres, cycling caps.”

Olney’s Headwear, established in 1915, had a reputation for making the best fine hats and caps in the UK. From 1988 on-and-off until 2019, Miller was to craft hats for luxury brands and internationally celebrated hatters worldwide. He worked closely with the in-house designers becoming a supervisor and an integral member of the design team.

Mister Miller hand makes every one of his caps in Britain using the noblest materials from leading weavers of wools, cashmeres and Harris tweeds.

Every cap is created for men and women alike with the occasional family outfit being made-to-order complete with monograms.
