Ferrules for reeded leather hat sweatbands, made to fit the plastic wire used in our shop sweatbands.
A ferrule fastens the reed at each end of the sweatband, which lets the band bell or curve outward and keeps the stitching from irritating the wearer's head. It is a tiny part, but it is the difference between a sweatband that looks factory finished and one that does not.
Buy them with any of our reeded sweatbands, or keep a bag at the bench for repairs. Hat makers and shops can order in bulk. Ships from the USA.
