Travel hat box: best price in Brooklyn
« on: August 22, 2017, 11:40:12 AM »
I'm looking for one of those traveling hat boxes.

The Hat Box charges $30. Do any stores in Brooklyn sell it for less?

Thanks.

I bought a hat from hat box a couple years ago and got the box for $20. Not sure if they still do this

Thanks. I don't need another hat now, just need to replace a box I gave to my brother who needed it in a pinch.

Right now it seems Bencraft is the best choice.

Wouldn't mind them at that price, but these containers are amazing and worth it.

Just picked up mine from Bencraft for $25 even.

Talking about traveling hat box, has anyone recently got the old or new ones with the fabric added on the cover to give you the ability to attach it to a carry on(suitcase)?

 Picked up a few from bancraft and none seem to have had it.

Probably why Hat Box and Hats Plus are out of stock.

I still would like to get one of the really old travel cases. Those were the sturdiest of all, but not the most space-economical. New stuff is usually inferior quality. The Brooklyn Bridge is one of NYC's most rugged bridges and hasn't had any structural issues, unlike all the "new" garbage that's built.

How scientific.

Why not add borsalino to the list, better pricing then bancraft on the trionfos..

Atzi hats (who I heard about after he advertised on dens) is making a new hat case that is supposed to be more travel friendly and can even hold two hats.
It will only be ready nov 30th and therefore is on sale now.
I'm trying to decide if I want to buy one.  I have a heavy plastic one but I gave it to my son when he became bar mitzvah.

Anybody have updated pricing on these things? I see a few online, some as low as $40. Wondering if I can still do better in store somewhere - 5T or Queens preferred, but I'd have someone pick one up in Brooklyn if the price difference was big enough.

Hatbox sells what looks like the same one - called the shayne box for $35.
