1920s British Cap and Hat Style

In British cities of the 1910s and 1920s, the flat cap was everyday wear for working men, from factory workers to market traders. It was usually made of tweed or wool cloth in gray, brown or black, with a short stiff peak. The look today pairs the cap with a three-piece suit or a waistcoat, a collarless or white shirt, a long overcoat and polished boots.

Our caps include herringbone and tweed-look styles, wool-blend and cotton versions, breathable straw for summer and a wide choice of colors. Sizes range from adjustable one-size caps to fixed sizes, so you can find a snug fit.
