Biggie and Tupac’s portraits share wall space at this chapeau shop, and if the rappers couldn’t make peace in life, at least they can posthumously agree on the virtue of a well-made hat. Owner Frenel Morris’s natty men’s headwear pieces ($75-$300) are definitely not dusty throwbacks. He often scours the city for artful ribbon and feathers to finish his creations (custom hats are a mere $50 more). A range of Kanye-style vintage sunglasses ($150-$500) and a small selection of men’s clothing are also sold.
