Joyce Locks has consolidated her three Hatsational storefronts into two. The remaining stores are located at 508 and 510 Broadway in downtown Saratoga Springs, in the Algonquin Building near the Saratoga City Center.<\/span><\/p>\n

The lease was up on the third store, but was not renewed to cut costs.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt will put me in a stronger position to come out on the other side of this pandemic, if I scale down to two stores for now,\u201d said Locks. \u201cAs my lease came due, I had this vision that we wouldn\u2019t open anytime soon. Then when you consider there are no conventions, no weddings, no concerts, no racetrack,\u201d she said. \u201cMy business is driven by all of those factors.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI intend to survive this, and this is the best way for me to come out strong. We can always open a third store another time,\u201d said Locks.<\/span><\/p>\n

As businesses return in the region, \u201cI\u2019m extremely excited to be opening,\u201d said Locks. \u201cWe\u2019ve totally prepared the stores to be safe for us and our clients. There\u2019s a lot of people who are old-fashioned and want to buy in a shop as opposed to online. I get a couple of calls a week from people anxious to shop in the store. They\u2019re just ready and waiting. We\u2019re not going to do the business we did before, right away, but it will slowly come back. And hats are something you just have to try on.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cYou have to tighten your belt and be very careful financially. You have to be wise with your expenses and inventory. It\u2019s going to be at least until spring of next year until we return to some kind of normal volume of business. As long as you plan on the worst case scenario, you should be in good shape,\u201d said Locks.<\/span><\/p>\n

Locks started Hatsational in 2007, first as a home-based business. She was inspired by her affinity for horses and headwear. She hosted hat salons in her home in Saratoga Springs, then branched out to pop-up events around town. Shortly after, Locks was selling hats at Saratoga Race Course on invitation from the New York Racing Association.<\/span><\/p>\n

Locks opened her first storefront in 2013. A year later, she opened a second location across town and in 2016, opened up a third location directly next door to her original storefront. The adjacent spaces are now separate men\u2019s and women\u2019s hat shops.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hatsational carries its own line of hats, as well as designer headwear from Italy, France, Germany, Australia, Mexico, Equador, Russia, Canada and the U.S.<\/span><\/p>\n
