Tricornes, or tri-corns, were the most popular and widely worn European hats of the 18th century, favored by both civilians and military alike. Styles ranged from simple and functional to lavish and ornate.

Evolving from the classic wide-brimmed hats of Spain, the turned-up brims helped channel rain away in wet climates. Our version faithfully replicates this iconic shape, making it suitable for colonial military or civilian reenactments.

Made from black wool felt with a sewn black trim and leather sweatband, this hat is an economical choice for authentic period dress.
