8-Panel Wool Cap - City Sport

Green Striped Wool 8-Panel Cap – City Sport

An elegant 8-panel cap in 100% wool, in beautiful shades of green enhanced with blue and red stripes.

With its generous shape and characterful pattern, the Green Wool 8-Panel Cap – City Sport elegantly revisits one of the great traditional forms of men's hatmaking.

Its 8-panel construction with basque gives it more volume than a classic flat cap. Its 100% wool fabric, dominated by shades of green and subtly animated by blue and red stripes, lends it a warm and refined look.

An ideal cap to complement autumn and winter outfits while adding an elegant touch of color.

A true 8-panel cap with a traditional style

The 8-panel cap is distinguished by its crown made up of several panels that naturally create more volume.

Unlike a flat cap or a duck bill, whose silhouette remains very close to the head, the 8-panel shape has a more assertive presence and a resolutely traditional character.

The presence of a basque further accentuates this generous silhouette and allows for a beautiful drape over the peak.

It is a shape particularly appreciated by traditional cap enthusiasts, but it can also be worn with a contemporary outfit to create an elegant contrast.

100% wool: ideal for cool seasons

This City Sport cap is made from 100% wool, an essential material in autumn-winter hatmaking.

Naturally warm and comfortable to wear, wool also gives the fabric an authentic look that is particularly well suited to the style of this cap.

It is therefore a perfectly suited model to accompany your outings during cool autumn and winter days.

An elegant interplay of green, blue and red

One of the distinctive features of this cap lies in its fabric. The dominant shades of green are enhanced by fine blue and red stripes, adding depth and personality to the model.

This color combination allows you to move away from the traditional grey, brown or navy while keeping a cap that is easy to wear.

It will pair particularly well with:

• a navy or grey coat;
• a brown or camel jacket;
• a tweed jacket;
• an ecru, navy or burgundy wool sweater;
• raw denim jeans or chino trousers;
• brown leather shoes or accessories.

Features of the City Sport 8-Panel Cap

Flat cap or 8-panel cap: which one to choose?

The choice depends mainly on the volume and style you are looking for.

• Flat cap: understated, discreet silhouette that sits close to the head.
• Duck bill: a particularly fitted shape with a small peak.
• 8-panel cap: a more generous crown and a distinctly traditional look.
• Hatteras: a voluminous shape in the same spirit as large traditional caps.

If you like caps with more character and presence, this 8-panel City Sport is an excellent choice.

How to wear this green City Sport cap?

Thanks to its shades of green and colorful stripes, this cap makes it easy to put together an elegant autumnal outfit.

For a traditional look, pair it with a tweed jacket, a wool coat or a brown jacket.

For a more contemporary look, simply wear it with raw denim jeans, a plain sweater and a jacket.

You can wear it naturally facing forward or slightly tilted to accentuate the character of its 8-panel shape.

Advice from Chapellerie Traclet

The 8-panel shape is particularly interesting if you find classic flat caps too fitted or too discreet.

Its volume gives the headwear greater presence and immediately adds a more traditional touch to the outfit.

To determine your size, measure your head circumference with a tape measure, passing approximately one centimetre above your eyebrows and ears, without pulling too tight.

This model runs true to size: choose your usual size.
