Renaissance Cavalier Hat



Cavalier Hat available in Black, Gray, Navy, Tan or Wine with cloak clasp pin and feathers.








This cavalier hat is made from a Felt Hat Blank and one size fits most.  These hats come unsized but do have a sweat band on the interior around the crown that has a ribbon that may be adjusted to make it fit tighter if you need it to be smaller. I sold these at my most recent fair and had several people from small to larger head sizes buy them that were quite happy with the fit of them.
These hats are not as stiff as the other hats I've sold for years which I think contributes to them being more flexible as to fit.

My new hat supplier has had trouble keeping all the colors in stock due to shipping issues so I won't always have everything available but will restock as soon as they have them available. Use the drop down menu to see what is currently in stock. 

The hat brim measures about 4 1/2 inches depending on where on the hat you measure it. The crown is also 4 1/2 inches high. Due to variations in the hat making process these measurements are a close approximation to the hats and are a general guideline for the measurements. Since these are felt they will stretch a bit when worn. The base of the crown measures 24 inches around when measured on the outside. 

It is secured with a cloak clasp and comes with your choice of one large ostrich feather or 2 smaller or other type of feather. If you want a particular color or type of feather please include a note at time of purchase to let me know your choice otherwise I will just choose for you. The Ostrich feathers can come in white, black, purple, yellow, wine, green, orange, blue, and red. Check to see for availability on feather colors as I may not always have all colors in stock. You may also choose between pheasant and striped turkey quill feathers as well as the 12" Peacock Eye feathers if you are taking the two feather option.

The hat comes with a brass pin inserted and folded up on the side. The feathers come loose in the box to keep them from getting broken during shipping. You simply insert the feathers behind the pin in the fold of the hat. I would suggest tacking them down with needle and thread for added security in case of a windy day.

These hats are great for Renaissance Fairs and SCA events. They also make a great pirate or pioneer era hat. This as well as the felt hat blanks I use to make these with that I also sell in my eBay store are new from stock I carry in my booth at fairs. The hat may be slightly bent from shipping but is easy to bend back into shape once taken out of the box.
