Christy's: Gone, but to return?

The first Fedora I ever owned was a Christy's, sadly that went missing and I have no clue where it went. I ordered a replacement and then over the last few years ordered two beaver fedoras and another in regular felt. Going back years they made a lot of the wool caps that people in my part of the UK often wore and which were often called "Dai" caps as so many people were called David. I am sure that Laird Hatters will work well with the brand.

Yes, their vision for the brand sounds great. I'm really glad it's gone to a new owner that will take it that direction rather than a novelty out fit thst would apply it to a stack 'em high, sell 'em cheap range with no furfelt.
