not Tweed, and of course they are a bit trendy, but as long as you don't buy one with a coloured label, I think it's fine...

Re: Autumn Ivy #11: The Tweed Cap -

I think Olney caps can have the `Look` and be quite cool.

They are a more inexpensive option and their cheesecutter flat caps are available in a whole range of tweeds.I bought one with a Harris Tweed Orb label from Peter Jones, Kings Road, some years back.They are less `padded out` than some of the other more expensive tweed caps and i really don`t think this detracts from their own unique charm.

I used to wear a tweed cap nearly everyday back in the early 90s.  almost got to the point it was like a safety blanket and couldnt leave the house without my cap.  Best selection in town were def at the "old man" stores where they'd have every pattern and colorway you could imagine.

www.lawrenceandfoster.co.uk (familar?)

www.hannahats.com (rather than 80 Euros for a Stetson knockoff, perhaps made indifferently in Banglapore)

Re: Autumn Ivy #11: The Tweed Cap -

Great links as always Mr. H., and I thank you.

Stetson I know as a cool looking brand from that "J. Simons" shop. Interesting to see them in a wider frame...

I still love The Look more than the quest for The Gold Standard tho. ...

But that's just me.

Re: Autumn Ivy #11: The Tweed Cap -

My dad gave me one he wore during cold winter days in college.  It's from this English company called "Carrick Cleator Cumberland" and it has ear flaps you can take off the top and strap 'neath your chin.

I don't wear it all that much but it makes an interesting substitute for the watch cap during those days when it's below 15 F or so.


EDIT: Spelling of Carrick Cleator & c.
