About


As a Market Trader, The Hat Man spent many years traveling the length and breath of Ireland and sometimes further afield attending at local markets, fairs and other such events.
However as the years rolled by and the body began to show the wrinkles, it was time to put the foot on the brakes and ease up on the throttle. Goodbyes were said to all fellow Traders, Hotel management and staff, B&B owners, plus of course all loyal customers and trading was then curtailed to Sundays.

Having spent 25 years trading at The Fairyhouse Sunday Market, a wonderful customer base was build up and rather than abandon that relationship, an online shop became the obvious ‘way to go’.
So here we are, The Hat Man online. Enjoy sorry, BUY
