One-Offs - Remainders - Samples

The berets shown on this page are often one-offs (the picture showing the actual beret on sale), sometimes stock remainders in a small number of similar berets, sometimes vintage and second hand berets. It is a constantly changing assortment of berets and accessories.

New on the One Offs Page: a unique collection of brand new berets originally made as samples, prototypes, or reference models for future production runs. Carefully stored away for years, these pieces were intended for eventual restocking — something that is no longer possible. Each beret is truly one of a kind, with only a single example available. To make room for new projects, all are now offered at wholesale prices while stock lasts.
