Cowhide Leather Flat Cap

Our Cowhide Leather Flat Cap is the winter-weight member of the family: glossy grained cowhide leather outside, a black plush, fleece-like lining and a sweatband inside. It is sold without ear flaps, as a clean short-brim cap.

Piped Seams and Vent Eyelets on a Cowhide Flat Cap

The crown is pieced from panels with raised piped seams running front to back, ending in a short stitched brim. Small metal vent eyelets on each side let warm air escape on a brisk walk, which matters in a lined cap. The grain changes with the shade: the black has a pebbled texture, while the brown and burgundy show a smoother, glossier surface.

Cognac, Burgundy or Black: Styling a Flat Cap in Cold Weather

Brown runs from cognac to coffee depending on the light and goes with tweed, corduroy and a camel coat. Burgundy, a wine red-brown, is our pick for a navy peacoat or a grey herringbone overcoat. Black is the city choice with a dark parka. Pick from more shapes in our leather flat caps range.

Cowhide Flat Cap FAQ

What sizes are available?

Four head circumferences from 55-56 cm up to 61-62 cm, roughly 21.7 to 24.4 in. Measure around your head where the cap will sit, then use our size guide.

Is the lining warm?

Yes. The black plush lining is soft and fleece-like, which makes this a cap for autumn and winter more than for summer.

How do I look after cowhide?

Wipe off rain with a dry cloth and let it air-dry away from heat. A neutral leather balm once a season keeps the hide supple; test it on an inside edge first.
