Fashion may evolve in many directions, but one thing always remains certain: newsboy hats and flat caps- also called paddy caps, kerry caps, scally caps, trinity caps, driving caps, or simply Irish caps- stay in style, carrying with them a rich cultural history. The Irish caps are a trademark gear of Irish men and women, being historically worn for centuries to protect the head from the cold and harsh Irish falls and winters. Nowadays, Irish caps are popular in Ireland and worldwide for the high-quality wool tweed used in various authentic designs- unique patchwork, vivid plaid patterns, rich salt & pepper, and intricate herringbones- inspired by our heritage and the places we love to call home.

Unique Men's Irish Hats Selection

 We offer a large selection of Men's Irish hats andcaps from Ireland, including trinity caps, Gatsby flat caps, touring caps, driving caps, Kerry caps, Peaky Blinders style caps, fisherman hats, eight-panel caps, and walking hats made of the finest tweed and wool, as well as Irish summer flat caps made with 100% organic linen and cotton. All our Irish caps are made and hand-finished to perfection in Ireland by skillful local artisans- a headwear piece that should not be missing from any gentleman's wardrobe!

What is an Irish Men's Hat Called?

The beloved men's Irish hat is most famously known as the flat cap, but over the years it has earned many names such as paddy cap, kerry cap, scally cap, driver cap, ivy cap, cabbie cap, golf cap, or simply the Irish cap. With all these varied names, the Irish hat traditionally reflects the same classic design- think of the signature rounded crown with the short, stiff brim- a proud part of Irish culture for generations and centuries. The iconic Irish flat cap has been a fashion staple in the Emerald Isle since the 1500s, when men and boys were required by law to wear a hat on Sundays and holidays. During this time, the flat cap became firmly established as everyday headwear among the working classes. Today, the Irish flat cap is embraced as a symbol of authenticity and timeless fashion, worn by everyone from the upper classes and celebrities such as Brad Pitt, David Beckham, and Cillian Murphy, to grandfathers and farmers- a stylish bridge between generations, the Irish cap proves it looks amazing on everyone! Another long-standing Irish hat style is the newsboy cap, praised all over the world for its fuller crown made from eight panels sewn together and a button on top. The newsboy cap became popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and remains an iconic choice today. It was initially worn by newspaper boys and girls in rural Ireland, designed to keep them protected from rain, wind, snow, and strong sunlight when riding bicycles. Fun fact- it's believed that the panels of the newsboy hat resemble the spokes of the bicycle's wheels.

How to Style Irish Caps for Every Season?

Since we understand how important it is for a true Irishman to proudly show off his roots, we offer a wide variety of Irish-made hats and caps to rock all year, for decades to come!
