Kris Kringle ’24

Blog Hattingdon
Kris wraparound Santa Hat with black belt.

Hello and welcome. It is nice to see you.

Vivian named today’s Christmas hat Kris (as in Kris Kringle) after the jolly old elf himself. It is a lovely wraparound hat, inspired by Santa’s red suit and wide black belt. So stylish and so delightful. And a big favourite.

The jolly old man in red

Open quote clipart in Hattingdon brown. By Vivian.

Santa Claus—otherwise known as Saint Nicholas or Kris Kringle—has a long history steeped in Christmas traditions.

Today, he is thought mainly as the jolly man in red who brings toys to good girls and boys on Christmas Eve, but his story stretches all the way back to the 3rd century, when Saint Nicholas walked the earth and became the patron saint of children.  See good read at History.com »

It is an amazing story with a fascinating history.

Vivian has put together an array of very nice hats for Hattingdon to wear this Christmas. While putting it together in her head, she thought . . . hmmmm, how about posting something fun too — that will bring everyone a “hatful of smiles”. Here’s Rudy.

Oh. Don’t go away until you have read about the squatchee. Who knew? None of us did.

The Squatchee

Do you know what a squatchee is? We didn’t. However, every ball cap in the world has one. Have you guessed?

“The squatchee is the button on top of a ball cap. It is also sometimes called the squatcho. In addition to being on top of the cap, the button is at the center, where all of the panels meet.” 

Not one of us here had heard of it. Did you know? Hmm. The things you learn blogging a hat crazy cartoon horse. Hahaha! Read more about the squatchee at Hat Heaven »

About the cap

The Rudy Hattingdon design begins with a red ballcap with a diamond pattern in white, studded in green with a green brim. Add golden brown antlers, and you have a Christmas hat that will give just about anyone — even a Scrooge — a “hatful of smiles”. And maybe even a bit of chuckling too.

Love y’all. H&Co.

Merry classic

Blog Hattingdon

Hello there! The Christmas hat we call Merry has been reimagined, and oh so charming.

Merry is a classic hat featuring a white dome outlined in a gorgeous green, with a matching brim in the same colour. Vivian decorated the front of the hat with two matching holly leaves held in place by two bright red “berry” buttons. Matching red ‘nosebobs’ complete this oh so lovely look. We looooooove it!

We hope you are enjoying the festivities of the season. See you again here soon with another Christmas classic hat.

Wow. Take a look at this elegant hat. Striking, isn’t it? We love it. Vivian named the design Chrissie.

The Chrissie fashion hat is made of a round, black dome surrounded with a luscious green tilted brim, and trimmed with two large and festive poinsettias.

What a stunning look, and so very merry. We hope you love it too.

Love Hattingdon & Co.
