Fedora Hats for Men
In the 1920s, a fedora was part of every man's outfit, worn with a suit for work, evenings out and travel. A dark felt fedora in black, gray, brown or navy suits a pinstripe suit, a waistcoat or an overcoat; a lighter color feels more relaxed for summer. For a gangster or Prohibition-era look, combine a black fedora with a dark suit, a white shirt, a tie and two-tone shoes.
To find your size, measure around your head just above the ears and across the forehead, then compare with the size chart on the product page. A fedora should sit level and snug without pressing on the temples.
Colors follow the season: dark felts for autumn and winter, beige, white and light gray for spring and summer. A contrasting ribbon band, such as black on beige, is an easy way to tie the hat to the rest of your outfit.
Hat Fedora Women's Styles
Women wear fedoras with tailored coats, wide trousers, midi dresses and jeans. Wide brims feel romantic and give sun protection; narrow brims look neat and modern. Bright shades such as red, pink and orange add personality, while black, beige and white are easy to match with any wardrobe.
Women's fedoras also work as a sun hat in summer. Pair a wide-brim fedora with a linen dress or a light blazer, and choose straw or light felt colors for warmer months.
A black fedora is the most versatile choice. It works with black-tie outfits, dark suits and evening dresses, and it is the color most associated with 1920s gangster style.
Wide Brim Fedora Hat Looks
Wide brims cast more shade and frame the face, which suits outdoor events, travel and summer weddings. They pair well with long coats and flowing dresses. Hold a wide-brim hat by the brim, not the crown, to keep its shape.
Most of our fedoras are felt or wool-blend felt. Brush them gently with a soft brush to lift dust, avoid soaking them, and let them dry naturally if they get wet. Store a fedora upside down on its crown or on a hat stand to protect the brim.
A red fedora is a confident accent with a black or gray outfit, popular for themed parties, stage costumes and holiday events. Keep the rest of the outfit simple so the hat stands out.
Trilby Hat vs Fedora
A trilby has a shorter brim that angles down at the front and turns up at the back, while a fedora has a wider, flatter brim that can be snapped down in front. Both have a pinched crown. Fedoras feel more classic and 1920s; trilbies look more modern and casual.
