The Hanna Hats story began in 1921 when David Hanna cycled over 100 miles from Belfast to Donegal with the hopes of securing an apprenticeship with McDaid’s Tailors in Donegal Town.
David was successful and after a few short years Hanna Hats, as we know it today, was established in 1924. David initially focused on tailoring suits, and then by chance he discovered a particular interest and flair for headwear. The company evolved to specialise in designing and creating handcrafted hats and caps.
David’s son John Joseph Hanna joined the business with his three brothers in 1964. John had a passion for beautiful fabrics, customer service and upholding the impeccable quality standards set by his father. Today you will find John's children, Eleanor and John Patrick, fulfilling this legacy as they continue to create timeless headwear pieces and accessories.
I just received my 5th Hanna cap. I have two in linen for the warmer months, and now three in tweed for when it’s cooler. The latest one in the Donegal Touring Cap in English Tweed, light brown , salt and pepper. The quality is absolutely amazing. Perfect fit. These are the best flat caps you can buy. Well worth the money.
Hi William, thank you very much for your kind words. That's a fantastic collection and we're delighted to hear you've been happy with the quality and fit of your caps. Thank you for your continued support, we really appreciate it.
Hi there, yes, this is our Eight Piece Cap Tweed which would be the most similar style to the cap Thomas Shelby wore in the series. We have a Peaky Blinders style guide which you can read here: hannahats.com/blogs/news/style-guide-peaky-blinders Please let us know if you need any further help.
Hi there, our prices have gradually increased over the years due to price increases in material and labour costs here in Ireland. We use high quality materials to ensure we are providing our customers with a long-lasting product. We are one of the last headwear manufactures left in Ireland and we take great pride in the fact that our products are still made in our workshop here in Donegal Town.
Unfortunately didn’t get to see the shop on my first visit to Ireland last week, Donegal is amazing, can’t wait to go back, immediately went home and ordered my third flat cap
We know we're biased, but yes Donegal is a special place. That's a pity you didn't get visiting our shop on your visit, but its a reason to come back. Thank you so much for your support. We hope you're happy with your third flat cap.

Fantastic hats. I ordered one in 2014 and it is still going strong. I just ordered two more (Nov 2022) and am really looking forward to receiving them! :-). If you are looking for an Irish tweed hat you can’t do better than a Hanna Hat!
