Greek Fisherman caps are useful throughout the year when protection from the elements (sun or otherwise) becomes necessary. They're also comfortable to wear (and plain good-looking too).
While
cotton caps seem to be worn equally in Black and in White, it seems that when the
cap is crafted from
leather, Black tends to be the color of choice for
Greek Fisherman caps with Brown a close second. On the other hand, when it comes to
wool Greek Fisherman caps, men seem split their color preference pretty evenly between Black and Navy, although Brown and Grey are very sharp alternatives as well.
We import our
Greek Fisherman hats from a
Greek company located outside of Athens, called
The Aegean Hat Company. Absolutely authentic right down to the embroidered
visors and braided cords, these
Greek Fisherman caps are surprisingly affordable as well. There's even a very nice
yachting cap from
DPC Global Trends; it's called
The Yachtsman and is decorated with anchor embroidery and contrast trim.
Yes, you
can have your baklava and eat it too (in your
Greek Fisherman cap, of course).
