And it will tell you a lot about the person who wears it.” PASCAL BABOULIN In a modern world obsessed with immediacy and instant gratification, it isn’t all too often you get the chance to lean all the way into the type of craftsmanship that’s preceded us all by centuries, back when workmanship and the name associated to it truly meant something. But in a town thrust into the world by unusual lavishness borne from exorbitant wealth connected to the world’s largest silver strike, old world artistry is the name of the game. And there’s no better place to really feel it than alongside Pascal, at his world-renowned hat making shop in the heart of the Golden West. In a town whose successes are rooted to cultural diversities from the most skilled tradesmen of all kinds from all across the world, the Virginia City Hat Maker’s story is no different. Pascal Baboulin grew up on the border of France and Switzerland in Savoie, France, and even though he first studied the artistry of hatmaking from his grandfather (another pro hatmaker) when he was just 13, he later came to the United States to explore the American West.
