Why Mens Sailor Hats

The men’s sailor hat you’ve brought out with you this fine afternoon has quite the history. Originally wide-brimmed straw item worn by 19th-century sailors, the sailor hat you won’t see as much today resemble more of a modern boater hat than it did your current sailor cap. Built to offer lightweight protection from the sun and elements, the hat was an important part of the British naval uniform until the 1920s, when the more modern sailor cap replaced it.

Chances are, you find yourself either with or looking for one of these items because you know all about vintage sailor hats for men. Even the brimmed, flexible accessory you recognize has evolved as it wended its way through history. Some of the first designs bore ribbons streaming from the back of the hat. In navies around the world, the rigid, brimmed white navy sailor hat we so often see today became a standard issue uniform piece. For civilians, the sailor cap moved in another direction.

If you’re interested in an ocean adventure then the more malleable, subtle form of hat is likely what you’re looking for. Made from comfortable cottons and breathable wools, men’s sailor hats make the vast sea feel more welcoming and the wide open sky bluer than ever. And, as your luck would have it, you don’t need the promise of smooth sailing to enjoy the modern style a men’s sailor hat provides.

Millinery in particular is a fashion that finds itself intertwining the utility of the past with new shapes, designs and feels of the present. In sailor hats, you have not just a token from world travelers of bygone eras, but you also have bit of vintage sheen you can apply to your outfit with ease. That’s the true beauty of something so ageless as a sailor cap. It will infuse your ensemble with history and regalness without taking away from the tried and true fashionable you.

From celebrities to the runways of Paris, sailor hats are not just back. They’re in, and they’re the sort of death-defying stunt only a truly confident person would attempt on a casual Tuesday. Pull on your wardrobe, and don’t forget to add a little edge to the equation. Your men’s sailor hat is sure, simple, and scintillating.

These famous faces donning your accessory of choice is just another validation of your unique sartorial senses. If the queen of pop and the fashion capital of the world are adrift in the loungy, lovingly charming sailor hat, rest assured you can allow yourself an adventure in one, too. But don’t let others dictate your outfit’s direction. You’re here because you know precisely how to light up a room and light up your evening jacket. The sailor hat is here, and it’s waiting for you.
