Breton Captain’s Cap

The Breton Cap with Visor—also known as the Breton fisherman’s cap or flat cap—has its roots in maritime tradition and is closely associated with sailors and fishermen from Brittany, France. Characterized by a rounded crown and a short, stiff visor, this style was originally worn to protect against wind and rain while at sea.

Over time, the cap gained popularity among artists and intellectuals, particularly in the 20th century, thanks to its distinctive yet practical design. Today, it remains a timeless fashion accessory for both men and women. Typically crafted from wool, cotton, or tweed, it is now reimagined in a range of contemporary styles.
