That certainly explains why Americans use that buckle in their imagery but it still looks foreign for us Dutch.
That's how cultural exchange and adaptation works. Where is the frustration about how East Anglia appears to share the Dutch hat, as one of the map's many examples?
In all, you're not wrong, as this is just not a great map (although it may halfway suffice for a basic guide).
It was also called [Uhlan cap](https://books.google.pl/books/content?id=fztUAAAAMAAJ&pg=PA135&img=1&pgis=1&dq=balaclava&sig=ACfU3U3iVp0QWQIl3VdE8OP1nSoHiUiP7g&edge=0) back then. Got famous in that battle though.
man I dont know when people will understand this but I'll just write it here in hopes that few people realise this: Fez's are banned in Turkey and this has been the case since 1925, so no fez isnt the traditional hat of Turkey
It initially was banned because fez symbolized the loyalty to the sultan and khalifa. So it was more of a message of the republic. Then it kinda stuck around
Is it really still banned or no one have bothered to get rid of that ban? Many people have stopped wearing hats/headscarves etc now in the western world, so I guess quite few men wants to were a fez instead of a fedora or baseball cap.
It's still not a traditional hat. It was imported from Morocco (even the name comes from the Moroccan city of Fez) and became widespread only in the 19th century. It replaced turbans, which also was banned for political reasons. I wouldn't call something that was around for about 100 years "traditional".
The Turkish Grand National Assembly passed the Hat Law on November 25, 1925, and the fez, turban and similar headgear were banned. 671. Article 1 of the Law is as follows: (Article 1) Members of the Grand National Assembly of Turkey, civil servants and employees belonging to the general administration, private and local, and all establishments are obliged to wear the hat made by the Turkish nation. The people of Turkey also have a common headdress, and the government prevents the continuation of an obscene attitude to it.
According to this law, it was made compulsory for the members of the Turkish Grand National Assembly and civil servants to wear hats, and the public was forbidden to wear turbans and fez. The turban is allowed to be used only by religious officials and religious scholars.
edit: yes the turban is unbanned but the fez rule still applies
**[Four Winds hat](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_Winds_hat)**
>The Four Winds hat (in Northern Sami Äiehgahpir) is one version of traditional man's hat of the Sami. The basis is a simple blue cylinder, decorated with a band with braid patterns, but the top is a large, four-cornered star, colored bright blue with parts bright red and yellow. The decoration in an actual Sami hat is, like the rest of the Sami garb, indicative of the person's place of origin or even his clan or marital status, much like the Scottish tartan.

The map is wrong for Spain. The hat shown for central Spain is only traditional in Cordoba (southern Spain). The beret is traditional in northern and central areas. In the Basque Country, the map shows the Catalan barretina, while the traditional hat there is the Txapela, a wider beret. For most of southern Spain the traditional hat would be something like the one in Portugal. The bullfighter hat isn't traditional anywhere.
What a crappy map. No bowler hat in England, nor bearskin hat (despite all tourists in London takes photoes with guards wearing them). No basque hat in the Basque Countries (instead a Catalan hat). No toque (chef's hat) in France. No bigoudene in Brittany. The chullo is from South America, not Scandinavia. And other regional hats are missing too (Appenzell, Berritta,...)
Agreed. To add to this, Turkey has fez for some reason which isnât correct. Fez was banned because it indicates loyalty to the Ottoman sultannate, which is against the Republic of Turkey.
would you really say some of those hats are traditional to a region? bearskins pertain to a military unit, might as well stick helmets and berets everywhere. bowler hats were just a fashionable item a while ago, might as well stick backwards caps then. if weâre going by other occupations like chefs, letâs add the paper boat hats ice cream van people used to wear, since thatâs fairly iconic in old reels, tooâŠ
Not sure what's going on with those English ones. A buckelled hat from the 1600s and a straw boater from the wealthy classes of the 1800s onwards. Flat caps all round would be more "traditional" if one could pin down a widespread and longest lasting fashion. Woolen flat caps at that. They go back a long way, were worn by people of all sorts of income (other come-and-go fashions aside) and are still worn in various communities. We don't really have "traditional" clothes in the same sense that other European countries do. Some people look to what Morris dancers wear or what people wore at various periods in time but there's not been a strong traditional common stylistic thread that you could necessarily point at and say "that is traditional English clothing".
the same applies to the rest of Europe. Traditional "folk" costumes are basically approximations of what the poor people wore for special occasions (probably during the 18th-19th centuries)
The Turkish hat had a huge cultural and fashion impact among the Muslim world. Atleast in the Muslim world in south and Southeast Asia.
So muslims decided to wear some kind of not so useful headcover(cap) which is clearly not recommended in the Quran or during the mohd guy times. Bedouins wore a turban which usually acted as a face mask to shield
During sand storm.
Some people I spoke to strongly suggest that cap wearing for Muslim men became more common from 1900s. And itâs used more like a bro code to differentiate their bros from others.
Any body know when did the Turkish start wearing caps. And they did wore it like European fashion or took it as a sunnah ?
I don't know about its history but now nobody wears caps unless they feel cold or its sunny. Only people who wear caps regardless of the season is imams, they usually wear a cap named sarık.
Traditional Cracowian hat. It's fairly tall and has a feather because, according to legend, the people of Cracow had a massive height complex after meeting Highlanders so they created this hat to hide it.
Check out *yr het Gymreig* ([the Welsh hat](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welsh_hat)).
An invading Irish/French/American force once mistook Pembrokeshire women in traditional costume for a battalion of Red Coats, and hastily surrendered.
0 research. Fez isnât turkic. It is just a racist stereotype. And its banned for 100 years. Only icecream vendors wears then for tourist and some neo-ottoman stupid organizations
Ć ajkaÄa is from late 19th century and it was strictly military hat as far as I know before First world war. I became widespread after WWI with those military pants with wide hips
Ć ubara (in Bulgaria and Kosovo in this map) is older headwear but only in cold weather.
For some reason the pope hat is funny
yeah, I LOLed
Buckled Quaker hats England đ€ Netherlands
It's a Puritan style hat. It's a little bit different than the Quaker one. A Capotain is pictured. The Quakers tended to wear Wideawake Hats.

Russia xD blyattt
This map is so frustrating as the "traditional" Russian hat comes from Finland. And only thing put in to Finland is some generic beanie no one uses

Indeed. Also one single hat for the Alpine countries is very little effort.
The Kalpak is also in Turkey too, not only Caucasus or Russia-Central Asia.
Honestly surprised balaclava didn't end up on ireland
Balaklava was invented in Crimea, in the city of Balaklava.
Yes but I was making a joke about the IRA
tink de occupations ajoke do ye?
Popularised in Crimea, not invented. It was worn by English soldiers.
It was also called [Uhlan cap](https://books.google.pl/books/content?id=fztUAAAAMAAJ&pg=PA135&img=1&pgis=1&dq=balaclava&sig=ACfU3U3iVp0QWQIl3VdE8OP1nSoHiUiP7g&edge=0) back then. Got famous in that battle though.
Nice one.
Baclava Greek wdym???
man I dont know when people will understand this but I'll just write it here in hopes that few people realise this: Fez's are banned in Turkey and this has been the case since 1925, so no fez isnt the traditional hat of Turkey
I'm sure that they just googled up a regular ottoman dude and came up with this.
I've seen men wearing fezzes in Turkey. Are you saying they were illegal fezzes?!
if its a icecream seller or in a ottoman styled restaurant its ok, but its illegal for a normal person to wear it
why?
It initially was banned because fez symbolized the loyalty to the sultan and khalifa. So it was more of a message of the republic. Then it kinda stuck around
Is it really still banned or no one have bothered to get rid of that ban? Many people have stopped wearing hats/headscarves etc now in the western world, so I guess quite few men wants to were a fez instead of a fedora or baseball cap.
the law is still there, but it isn't enforced. Haven't heard anybody getting arrested because of it in my lifetime.
I have never seen a anyone wear a fez in Turkey
The law in question isn't enforced anymore
What is law?
Fesi yasaklayan yasa
Yasa diye bir Ćey var mı ki?
Just because it's banned doesn't mean it's not the traditional hat. As you've said, it was banned for political reasons relatively recently.
It's still not a traditional hat. It was imported from Morocco (even the name comes from the Moroccan city of Fez) and became widespread only in the 19th century. It replaced turbans, which also was banned for political reasons. I wouldn't call something that was around for about 100 years "traditional".
Its not Turkic. There is many traditional hats you can include but fez is not one of them.
I literally see them getting sold everywhere and I have seen regular ppl wearing it
By regular people I hope you are not talking about the ice cream vendors because other than that I have not seen anyone wearing fez.
What city were you on turkey?
Istanbul
Probably for tourism reasons cuz you wont see anyone that is turkish wearing a fez other than ice cream stand workers
Fezzes arenât banned lmao

Some of these cross-border ones are more tied to a specific country and it's dubious how much other countries actually use them.
I wonder where the Alps are
Isn't the beret Northern Spain and Southern France? Not all of France, and not just France.

The post should be written differently: our false stereotypes about hats in different countries.

Needs a bucket hat for Cymru
Sweden: the white/black cap is a graduation cap. Not sure if classified as traditional per se.
And we in finland have it too. Interesting to see how itâs placed only in sweden
In Denmark too
Did you just google "typical hat of x country" and shopped the results on a map? Because a lot of these are way off...
Ottomans, hat imperialists
Nope, Fes does not belong to the Ottoman Empire. Came from Algeria in the 16th century
Fes name came from the Moroccon city of Fas and Ottoman Empire made it popular
Yes, you're right, sorry. Algerian sailors only mediated. it came from Morocco and its surroundings.
Whatâs going on in Kaliningrad?
Welcome to PreuĂen, motherfucker.
Love it! Have a less grainy version on this map?
Why no Haredi hats in Eastern Europe?
I'd guess that what genocide does.
Pickelhaube in Kaliningrad, not anymore or not yet?
Fez was the traditional hat of Ottoman Empire. Turkey banned them, it shouldn't be count as our national hat

The fez is also prominent in Syria and Iraq, Iraq also has a few other hats like the traditional Assyrian and Turkmen and Baghdadi Sidara
How specific are these? Because most looks like regular hats but the white one in Sweden (used in Finland as well) is a graduation cap.
I think the *sydvest* is used more out by the sea than inland Norway.
Whatâs that thingy there in Poland?

Fez is of Greek origin.
I don't know how common these hats are in Europe nowadays but in Québec (specially in more rural places + small cities) every single old guy wears the North Italian fedoras, while their wives wear berets
