Glengarry hat

I found this bargain Scottish Glengary Hat on Etsy


Made of wool and excellent quality, it features a small pompom in the dip of the crown and black ribbon ready to receive a badge, plume or broach.



The Glengarry hat became the standard hat of Scottish regiments in the British Army around 1860.


Apparently, in the military, the hat should be worn steeply angled, something I did not do in these photos. When I look at other photos however most people seem to wear it straight like me.


A must for anyone who plays Bagpipers I think.
