The line consists of patterned fabric casquettes, blocked pieces, such as fedoras, and sunhats, and specialty cocktail hats. The line is currently sold in over 15 locations in North America, Japan, and Europe.
The line is designed entirely by Victor Osborne and Zachary Barnett, 23 and 24 respectively. Victor, a FIT graduate in woman’s wear, worked for 4 years in NYC for other designers before gaining the means to start his own line. Zachary, an industrial and graphic design graduate from Concordia University in Montreal, met Victor as he was starting the line and the two have worked together steadfastas partners ever since.
Victor Osborne Headwear supports local production, and every productis made in NYC. The storefront in Brooklyn serves as open atelier for design as well as a showroom for buyers for both wholesale and retail. The open format workshop allows foot traffic and visitors to the space to watch the hats being designed and finished creating a strong tie between the designers and the trade which they pursue.
This is an important feature as Victor Osborne Headwear positions itself as a respected design team crafting hats using time honored techniques and innovative thinking. |
