History

Company History

Established more than a century ago, Pudney Leather Hats and Crafts began as a testament to the passion for craftsmanship and the rich heritage of South Africa. Founded in Port Elizabeth, our journey has been marked by key milestones, including a royal acknowledgement from Queen Elizabeth in 1947, where we were fortunate to not only make her a fur coat as a gift but also received a letter from her. These moments have become integral chapters in our story, shaping our commitment to excellence and authenticity.
