Gangster hat Mafia black

The black Maffia gangster hat is a fedora with a creased crown and shiny hatband, designed for a tough gangster or mafia look. The first thing that catches the eye is the crown: it has a long crease in the middle and two pinches at the front, exactly the shape you recognize as a fedora. You can wear it as a woman or a man, at a mafia party or a 1920s party.

Crown, band and brim of the gangster hat

• The crown has a crease along its length and two pinches at the front, giving the crown its typical fedora shape.
• A shiny band in the same color as the hat runs around the crown.
• The wide brim is finished with a narrow border along the outside.
• The surface is matte, with a slightly rough appearance.
• The hat is made of 97% polyester and 3% polyurethane.
• The model is suitable for women and men and comes from the Boland brand.

Why the fedora belongs with gangsters

The fedora is the hat with the crease in the crown that you know from old gangster films about American Prohibition. There it belongs with the pinstripe suit and the long coat, and so it has grown into the trademark of the mafia look. The difference with a bowler hat lies in the shape: a bowler hat has a round, smooth crown, while a fedora has that pinched front. If you want everyone to immediately think of a gangster, then you choose the crease.

How do you wear the gangster hat at a mafia party?

You wear a gangster hat slightly tilted forward, so the brim falls just above your eyebrows. For men, a white shirt with a narrow, dark tie is already a good base, and with a pinstripe suit or suspenders to match, the mafia look is complete. Women combine the hat at a 1920s party with a flapper dress or a pinstripe pantsuit, and then place it slightly sideways on their head. If you are playing a murder mystery, the hat makes it clear at a glance who belongs to the family.

Order the black Maffia gangster hat and enter your next mafia party as the head of the family.
