The colonists were good at making hats and made a lot of them. So many that the British feared they would cut into the British hat making industry. Thus, the British passed the Hat Act of 1732 to limit the number of hats colonists could make as well as the number of people who could be hired into the hat making businesses. This angered the colonists and was one of the many problems that led to the Revolutionary War.
