Peaky Blinders Cap
The Peaky Blinders cap
Those Irish caps made famous by the famous BBC series. A series telling the story of a family of criminals known as the "Peaky Blinders". Through robbery, gang warfare and territory, we are transported to this dark 19th century world in the middle of Birmingham.
But where does this strange name "Peaky Blinders" come from? Roughly translated in French, it would mean "Peaky Blinders". This peaked cap, which was an integral part of their thugs' outfits, was nicknamed "peaky", hence the name of this group. As far as the other side is concerned, according to some sources it would be:
- either because these criminals hid their weapons in the visor of this cap...
- or that their method of robbing their victims was to punch them in the nose, using the cap, in order to blind them while they stole a good number of their belongings...
The "Peaky Blinders" no longer exist to explain us the real reason of their mythical name, so it's up to you to choose the version you like the most!
Anyway, if you are also a fan of this series and you want to wear these caps, as well as the main characters, you can find models that will please you in our special selection "Peaky Blinders".
