On one hand it makes me sad that the videos you guys produce don't have the same reach they once did, but on the other hand I'm very happy that you still dedicate yourselves to telling interesting and inspiring stories we wouldn't have heard otherwise. I know I've mentioned this on previous videos, but we love you guys and we're absolutely elated you've returned. 🖤🤘🏽
I really want for hats to make a full comeback into modern day fashion, well, everyday fashion to be precise. Hats are just a lovely accessory that helps keep the sun out of your face and it can add so much to a plain outfit. Right now I wear caps and I have a wide brim felt hat that doesn't quite fit me, I'd love to own a fitted hat for my tiny head.
I don't envy the writer who had to pick the video name... so many amazing fact drops! "we fitted the queen", "we invented the bowler", "we use victorian tech even today", etc.! 🎩👍
1:30 well done sir on the man spreading! A true professional. There are only a few groups of men that can pull off this kinda of man spreading. He does it with authority..
I was fitted for my Raiders of the Lost Ark fedora at Northwest Hat in Eugene, OR. His head shaping device was 3d printed and my fedora fits perfectly.
I used to see many people wear bowlers field hunting in the late 70’s. They wore it with a special string attached to their jacket in case it got knocked off. I just wore my helmet.
Yes, she does.I think that's because she's a non-native English speaker. I think that had a huge influence on her accent although she's spent most of her life in English speaking country.
I can clear this up, I am a native English speaker and I grew up in Hong Kong. I went to an international school there and people who go to international schools often have crazy amalgamated accents. I sound Scottish to some people 🤷🏻♀️
@@AwonGolding Hello,Awon. Im sorry for my misjudgment. I heard that you are the grand daughter of belated Rishang,honourable Sir.He was a friend of my grandpa. So I've perceived you as an Indian. Besides, your name sounds like a native Tangkhul name. Hence, I made the wrong judgment. Sorry and nice to speak to you. By the way I love the hats. They're classic. ❤
@@Vaahbizno problem. I am indeed Tangkhul and that is my grandpa but I grew up in HK and would regularly visit India to see family. Sadly my language skills are limited and my Hindi and Tangkhul barely stretch to basic pleasantries. Anyway, thanks for watching the video! Hope you enjoyed ❤
Id love to visit these guys if i ever visit the UK, ive got such a big head I can't really buy hats off the shelf anywhere and it would be cool to get properly fitted
Wish there was a place like this in my neck of the woods in the US...I like vintage stuff and getting a nice hat...particularly an ACTUAL fedora and not a trilby (which everyone seems to call a fedora) means I have to look online and hope shipping doesn't mess it up since the only hat stores around me are LIDS....baseball caps for days but anything like a bowler, top hat, fedora or other similar classic hats are a lot harder to come by, baseball caps and cowboy hats are all easy to come by down south where I live. The others...not so much unless you go online so a custom fit like this is pretty much impossible...which is annoying as in the old west bowler hats were actually rather popular among cowboys up until the Stetson Boss of the Plains hat was made.
I was wondering if they only did men's hats or not and then you showed the female half...eh. I like the more traditional men's side then the out there female side. Even if she is inspired by vintage...I guess I'd have to see the hats in person. I'm not really a hat person, I feel like I don't have the face for one...plus I have a huge head lol.
A well deserved tip o' the hat for Lock and Co. 🎩
Why no one is commenting ? Let me fix that
🎩
Hats off to them for staying in business for so long.
😑
Ba dum pss
Hats on for the hats off
This really is journalism you can't get anywhere else, so glad you guys are back!
I mean in this case you have quite a few menswear youtube channels that cover stuff like this, like Tom Chamberlin and Kirby Allison.
Thank you for the love, we appreciate you! 🫶

A tip of the hat to this fantastic story!! So excited and happy GBS is back !!!!!! So greatful

“The Conformator” is the most Victorian superhero name I’ve ever heard.
Right?!
1:21 "send you 'round the twist" is such an amazingly British way to say "he crazy" and i love it
That was great! What a fun store. The mad hatter thing was awesome 😆
I don't envy the writer who had to pick the video name... so many amazing fact drops! "we fitted the queen", "we invented the bowler", "we use victorian tech even today", etc.! 🎩👍
There were lots of choices 😅
Who else just stumbled across this channel and absolutely loves it!
Still so happy GBS is back
I’m definitely getting a hat here when I visit London. ❤
Yesss, do it! 😃
A great hat makes a style look complete
Absolutely 🎩
Great video and great shop.
Interesting sidenote, Charley Chaplin wore Lock and Co. hats, his great grandkids are musicians called Lockenville 😄
Such a good story!
Always loved this shop. Love my linen flat cap from them
Hat's off to them for keeping the Hat's on
Man, if I ever visit London, this is the first place I'm going to. Always wanted a nice hat, it just feels cool
Well, that was quite a bit of fun!

"Cap" is one of those words used by kids these days that makes me feel old.
Don't let it. It'll wax and wane, like "radical" and "on fleek". If it sticks around, it'll make its way into your vocabulary by osmosis, don't worry.
Cool stuff, as someone who's recently gotten into wearing Fedora, this is right up my alley :p
Ms. Golding has a unique American/British accent…
Yes, she does.I think that's because she's a non-native English speaker. I think that had a huge influence on her accent although she's spent most of her life in English speaking country.
@@Vaahbiz I never would have guessed she’s not a native English speaker. I would have thought she was an American who moved to Briton.

Very cool episode
That’s awesome!
I would kill to get a hat here, super cool place.
Now I want to get my own hat from them
Amazing video
They made odd job’s hats!!?!! That is so cool!!!
If I ever get asked to Buckingham Palace, I'm going here for my hat!
Id love to visit these guys if i ever visit the UK, ive got such a big head I can't really buy hats off the shelf anywhere and it would be cool to get properly fitted
These people are the modern journalists and documentary makers.
Locke and Co.! I got a bowler from them!
That's cool! Have you tried stepping on it yet?
Hats off to you sir 👏
Is that also where you got your stovepipe hat?
That is so cool!!
I love the female hat maker with the continental accent.
Now can they make me a burning team captain… but references aside, fantastic video
Very interesting

Long time no see..
GBS Nice
🎩🎓👑🎓🎩
And a tip o' the hat to you 🎩
Back to you mate 🎩
For now on they didn't wear the bowler hat, but they wear it for UN & at some special events.
Nice
I want a hat now
On the list. Get fitted. I'll either never wear it, or wear all the time
"Jesus actually came in here for a hat. His father had gotten fitted the week before and recommended us to him."
his wide spread sit at the camera eye is,
something.
your editor messed up the color grade key select when the narrator was speaking in front of the shop. Look at the nose.

Love it but the background music is overpowering the voice of the interviewee
Are they also part of an underground agency which keeps tabs on what's happening around the globe ? 🤔
A shame the top hat maker has been lost forever.
So they commisioned other people to make the hats, so I guess they didn't invent the Bowler hat those brothers did.
Nick Cage is such an inferior star compared to the others 😂
