2. Wolf's Department Store and Pawn Shop - 2701 Dowling Street Houston 77004
Wolf's has been serving the Houston area for decades from its location near downtown. It's a full service clothing store, featuring everything from suits to exotic dress shoes, as well as jewelry and other items. I noticed guitars hanging on a wall up a flight of stairs while I was visiting the shop.
Wolf's definitely has a large selection of hats and caps, including brands like Kangol and Stetson, and is a great place to look at a wide range of hats ranging from casual to fancy or classic.
1. Miller Hats - 11110 Bammel North Houston Rd. 77066
When I visited Miller Hats I was expecting something different. Their website made me expect an enormous storefront somewhere, because their selection is so large. When I arrived at the shop's North Houston location, and followed a sign down a driveway that led me to a metal building, I was a little worried from the modest appearance of the place. Stepping inside, any fears I might have had vanished, the nondescript outside hides a very nice interior that's packed with a wide range of hats to fill nearly any need. I spoke to the owner about what makes Miller Hats a special place.
"The history of the hat store goes back to 1894 and I bought the shop in 1995 and have owned it since then. We specialize in dress hats, but carry all sorts of hats including styles from movies. We sell hats from "Apocalypse Now," John Wayne films, reenactment hats, "Indiana Jones," "Tombstone," "Billy Jack," old west styles, uniform hats, all sorts. We have stingy brims which are very popular, pork pie dress hats, tear drop, Humphrey Bogart, you name it." And looking around, one thing is clear - Miller Hats should be a place to visit for anyone looking for a good hat, particularly if they're looking for a nice dress hat or something to accurately complete a costume from a favorite film.
Hats have never completely disappeared from men's style, but they're much more fashionable again after years of not being as prominent, and any man or woman interested in finding the perfect hat, be it a cowboy style, a fedora, or something else, should consider stopping by to browse the extensive selections that these local hat shops have on hand.
