Fashion trends are forever changing and it can be difficult sometimes to keep track of what’s considered popular at any given moment. Here at SSP Hats we always like to keep an eye on what’s considered to be the most popular and profitable ranges at any one time. Looking at studies and reports from all types of fashion outlets, this Spring/Summer season has brought up some interesting predictions.
With their casual look and nostalgic feel, it’s considered that both the bush hat and baseball caps will be very popular for this coming season. Thankfully we have a wide range of both current and new bush hats along with an array of great baseball caps. All of these hats are made from strong materials with a diverse set of designs from patterned to plain. Children are also catered for with character style bush hats that will appeal to their playful nature.
For men in particular, the Fedora is considered to be the top trend that will be a definitive bestseller. Again we have an entire range of fedoras made from all materials and suitable for all the occasions the spring/summer season may bring.
Women’s trends this season are considered to be both visors, which are perfect beach and holiday wear particularly in the summer season and wide brimmed hats that often bring a sense of elegance to any outfit.
Finally straw material hats and floral motifs are predicted to be very popular for this time of year and we have plenty to choose from.

From December we released our latest Spring/Summer 2016 catalogue which featured our current stock with some brand new additions. While these new additions have been added to the website for previewing they weren’t available for purchasing. Thankfully from today all of our new arrivals are ready to order with full stock levels.
One of the most popular ranges last spring/summer season was our sensational straw and sun hats. Due to their popularity we’ve decided to extend these substantially for both men’s and women’s collections. Fedoras like S220 and A1002 along with trilbies like S240, will appeal to those men wishing to create a casual look and feel. Elsewhere arrivals such as the wide brim SL31 and S225 are superb for female customers. Not to mention our great reversible sun hats such as A1008 and straw hats like SL33. Many of these new straw and sun hats have exquisite features. From patterns to bands, there’s truly something here for every taste.
Our brand new tweeds are also now in stock with a wide range of styles available. New trilbies and fedoras like A1024 and A1020 are available in earthy colours and constructed from strong materials, making them ideal for the great outdoors. Best sellers like Flat caps are having new additions such as H102 and A1022. Creating the most interest so far though is the tweed porkpie H103.
As previewed in our previous newsletter our new Occasion hats and Fascinators are now available for purchasing. Finally we are offering new Lightweight scarves that will complement that perfect spring outfit.
As ever minimum ordering is £100 and we are offering free deliveries for any orders over £300. We’ve had many enquiries about our new stock already and the most popular items can sell out quickly so this is a great opportunity to get your orders in quickly.

It’s been over a month since we got back from Showcase Ireland but it was a great show for us and is still fresh in our minds. We would like to take this opportunity to thank those that came to see us and showcase some interesting trends that the show brought up.
Firstly the most popular hats for this show were our exceptional patchwork flat caps like H27 and A14 which remain a great mix of style and comfort. We have plenty of Flat caps currently in stock but with them being well sought after it would be a good idea to get your orders in quickly to avoid disappointment.
Understandably with the summer season approaching our sun hats gathered great interest. H88 and A357 in particular got great feedback with large orders placed for these. Sun hats from our children’s collection also made a strong impression. New arrivals like C147 and B91 would be perfect for holidaying or just general wear in the coming summer months.
Accessories were also a popular choice among the customers who saw us. Practical ponchos like PON1 and the children’s CP2 were big sellers to provide a great waterproof option from that inevitable summer rain we all dread. Our final trend was our lightweight scarves from classics to the most recent arrivals such as LS142 and LS147.
