The core of what happens here is the hat fitting, a craft the Meyer family has refined across three generations. Staff measure your head, read your face shape, and pull options you would not have thought to try yourself. The result is a hat that looks like it was made for you, because the selection process treats it that way.
The store carries an extensive range of styles: panama hats woven for New Orleans heat, classic fedoras in wool and straw, structured western hats, flat caps, and specialty pieces tied to local teams and universities like Tulane. Custom sizing and blocking services are available for those who need a precise fit.
Beyond individual purchases, Meyer The Hatter is a destination for gifts, special occasions, and the kind of souvenir that actually gets worn. The team ships nationwide, so the hat you fall in love with on St. Charles Ave can follow you home anywhere in the country.
