About the Pork Pie hat shape

The first hats to feature this typical shape, called "Pork Pie hat", were mainly worn by American and English women in the 1930s during the American Civil War. At the time, it was frequently worn with a small feather, inserted under its ribbon on the side according to the trend. In the United States, it was silent film actor Buster Keaton who greatly contributed to its success, and for the record the latter made his own Pork Pie, from Fedora hats!

The Pork Pie hat was reintroduced at the end of the 90s, thanks to the movement of Jazz culture, in particular, jazz saxophonist Lester Young, and Hip hop culture and is today a great success. Pork Pie Men's hat or Pork Pie Women's hat, today it's worn carelessly backwards by boys and girls alike. It has made a major contribution to the revival of hat wearing in France, becoming one of the trendiest accessories.

Film figures finally put it back on top : Robert de Niro in the film Mean Street or Gene Hackman for French Connection. Since then, we've been wearing it for a casual, jazzy look on any occasion. This round model now comes in many materials, such as wool felt,hair felt, straw but also in fabric with a touch of extra fantasy: feather or other.
