The crowd‑favorite Wool Beret is back—brighter, bolder, and better than ever in fresh new colors. Effortlessly chic and easy to pack, it’s the kind of hat that makes you feel like an artist, a romantic, or someone who simply understands good style. Perfect from fall through spring. A quick tip of the hat to history: born in the Basque region between France and Spain, the beret was worn for centuries by Bearnais shepherds, who discovered that tightly spun wool naturally firms up in the rain, creating a snug, weather‑wise classic. Naturally, it’s now a New York staple—especially suited for a stroll into the Museum of the City of New York. 100% wool beret is unisex. One size fits most. Expanded color selection for extra flair. Handcrafted in New York. Show more
