Tan Fedora Hats for Men
For men, a tan fedora works with a navy blazer and chinos, a linen suit at a summer wedding, or a white shirt and suspenders for a 1920s daytime look. The short brim style with a braided belt sits neatly and suits smaller faces; the men's wide brim fedora gives more shade and a bolder outline. Tan shows less dust than black and less wear than white, which makes it a practical travel hat.
The women's felt fedora in tan pairs with a camel coat, a cream sweater or a floral dress in autumn. A wide brim in tan looks bohemian with a maxi dress and boots, and more polished with a blouse and wide trousers. Tilt it slightly to one side for a 1920s angle.
What to Wear with a Tan Fedora Hat
Tan goes well with navy, white, olive, brown and denim. Avoid matching it to a suit of exactly the same shade, which flattens the outfit; one shade lighter or darker looks more intentional. Brown shoes and a brown or tan bag finish the look.
The western-style fedora with a chain band, offered in mustard and brown, leans toward a country outfit with boots and a denim jacket.
