Decorated Tricorn

 This tricorn is decorated quite modestly compared to some.

The badge has a medal like an appearance, so it feels like it could be used by some militia or perhaps an officer, not a tricorn for a pirate.

The badge was poorly attached and the ribbon not at all when I got it from a market, so had to sew it back together. 

Leather Kepi

 This black leather Kepi was donated.

Leather is not a material usually associated with Kepi's at least ones wanting to be historically accurate, this one, however, was purchased by Larper so the need to authentic was not as important as the look it provided.

Not a very British hat, although they were worn by male uniformed British Rail workers in 1960 to 70;s perhaps we envied French rail at the time. 

Kepi history and facts have been covered in my blog previously, so I won't add any more today other than what's above.

A robust functional leather version of a Kepi.

Cloth Cap

 I have a few flat caps, this is one of my favourites.

Not sure what makes it a favourite, maybe the brown colour works well with other clothing or maybe its just a comfortable hat.

I have posted so many flat caps before so not much new to say, an old cap that still fashionable in today's world.

Librarian's hat

This style of hat I like to call a Librarian's hat, since I see it worn by some sort medieval scholar or portrait painter, although it's not specific to anyone of that sort in reality.

Made of wool fabric sewn to form the shape.

Ideal for reenactor, theatre or larp use, will suit a multitude of characters

If looking for a hat of this style online look for a medieval wool crown hat
