Panama Hat
|
How could a gentleman eve contemplate setting foot outside the door during clement weather, without his precious locks securely covered by a suitable summer hat? And there is no more suitable summer hat than a Panama. The Chap Panama has a broad snap brim and the crease along the surface of the crown that denotes a classic, or colonial, Panama. | |
|
Straw Boater
|
For those with a little more in mind than lazing about by a river or taking a picnic with chums, the straw boater adds that extra touch of joie-de-vivre to a chap's outfit. This is a particularly solid, dependable one, ideal for wearing with a blazer for a more formal sporting or boating occasion, such as Henley Regatta or the Chap Olympiad. | |
|
Linen Cap
|
Sometimes one simply doesn't feel like wearing a Panama or a boater. Those days when the sun is trying to burn us all to a crisp, yet all we want to do is scuttle to the nearest turf accountant and try and win a few bob to spend on Pimm's in the evening. Those are the times for a plain linen cap, the summer equivalent of a flat cap. | |
|
Green Tweed Cap
|
This particular variant on the flat country cap has a deep back and a long peak, to keep the rain off one's face when cycling, striding across the Yorkshire Dales or heading to the 24-hour convenience store for more tonic. Our classic design is in a heathery tweed with a subtle maroon and green overcheck. | |
|
Brown Tweed Cap
|
This variant on the hat above is in a series of autumnal browns with a burgundy and orange overcheck. Wherever the wearer of this hat wanders, heads will turn at the exuberant flavours of wild Highland moor that it exudes. | |
|
Donegal Tweed Eight-sectioned Cap
|
If one wishes to take a step further along the path that leads to pure dandyism, an eight-sectioned cap makes a slightly bolder statement than a flat cap. Ours, in a greenish grey Donegal Tweed with little flecks of colour, will give your tweed suit a rakish air and also keep the chill off your hair. | |
|
Tweed Driving Cap
|
When tootling along the London to Brighton road in one's 1928 Bentley 4 1/2 litre, one's driving goggles will keep the grit out of one's peepers, but what can be trusted to remain firmly on the head, and also afford one the requisite panache to persuade a young tyke to mind the motor, while one takes a few ales in a Sussex tavern? Nothing will do but a tweed driving hat such as this. | |
