Our Story
From traditional flat caps to relaxed baseball caps, the right hat can be both a practical addition and a finishing touch to an outfit. But with several styles sharing a similar shape, knowing the difference between a flat cap, duckbill cap and newsboy cap isn't always straightforward.
Our guide to men’s caps and hats explains the key differences, along with a few other favourites for every season.
Quality Menswear Since 1997
Joseph Turner was founded in Yorkshire in 1997 by Christopher Legard, with a simple idea: to offer quality menswear, made from carefully chosen fabrics, in classic, easy-to-wear styles.
Nearly 30 years on, that belief remains at the heart of everything we do. Inspired by the Yorkshire countryside and a love of traditional British style, we create clothing that looks good, feels comfortable and is made to last.
A Small Team With a Big Commitment
You might be surprised to learn that there are just 13 of us at Joseph Turner. We're a close-knit team who take pride in what we do, with our longest-serving team member having been with us for almost 20 years.
Everyone plays their part, and when things get busy, you'll often find our Managing Director in the warehouse helping to pick and pack orders alongside the rest of the team.
The Finest Fabrics
We believe good clothing starts with good materials.
From Scottish and Yorkshire woven tweeds to classic Oxford cotton and woollen fabrics, we carefully select materials for their quality, comfort and durability.
Where possible, we work with local mills and suppliers, drawing on Yorkshire's rich textile heritage while also sourcing exceptional fabrics from further afield.
The result is a collection of dependable menswear designed to be worn and enjoyed for years to come.
Quality in Every Detail
It's often the little things that make the biggest difference.
From working button cuffs on our jackets and blazers to traditional gussets in our formal shirts, we value the details that have stood the test of time.
We believe in doing things properly, combining traditional craftsmanship with practical, comfortable designs that work for everyday life.
Inspired by Yorkshire, Made for Everyday Life
Our Yorkshire roots continue to influence the way we approach menswear, from the rich colours of the countryside to the natural textures of the landscape.
From country-inspired tweed jackets and warm knitwear to dependable shirts and trousers, our collections reflect a love of practical clothing, carefully chosen fabrics and timeless style.
We don't believe in chasing every new trend. Instead, we focus on creating clothes you'll reach for time and again.
Nearly 30 Years On...
A lot has changed since 1997, but our commitment to quality clothing and good customer service remains the same.
We're proud of what we've built, grateful to the customers who have supported us over the years and always pleased to welcome someone new.
Here's to many more years of Joseph Turner.
