These 29cm wool berets are made by one of Europe’s oldest
beret manufacturers and finished with original woven labels dating from the
1940s–1960s, bringing an authentic touch of history to each beret.
Unlined, lightweight, and easy to wear, they are designed in
a practical one-size model that fits most comfortably. All models: $39.50.
The Etchea label has got a new lease on life after it was abandoned after many decades of good use at the end of the 20th century. A label that beautifully captures the spirit of un-pretentiousness that was so typical of French berets and beret-wearers during the last century: an old peasant wearing a beret and clogs trudging along his faithful mule, the 'etchea' (Basque farmhouse) pictured on the background. Great berets for workers, farmers and city-folk for every day of the year.
Reinstated exclusively for South Pacific Berets - available in 28 and 30cm diameter, Black and Navy.
The 'Rafales' are the latest in a series of reinstated old, 1950's, beret labels, fitted in a specially made range of densely knitted black Basque berets honouring the qualities of the once so popular Rafale - highly water resistant and storm-proof.
These berets come in three two diameters: 28, 30 and 32cm.
The Chirola is an old, long vanished label that has been reinstated for South Pacific Berets. The sized Chirola Foulard Basque was re-introduced late 2018 and has become an instant bestseller.
Now the range has expanded with one-size universal models in a range of diameters (27, 29 and 31cm ⌀) in navy.
Literally chirola means "worthless money" in Argentine slang, or a coin of 20 centavos. Here it stands for practicality, durability and quality - heavy duty great berets with a beautiful old-time label at a small price.
These 11p/31cm foulards are available in a large range of sizes between 56 and 61 at $47.50 only.
