Berets, Anyone?
Been wanting to make this comparison post for a while. Happy to finally have all the berets needed for it! I’m going to be discussing four different leather headbands, or badanas in Spanish. They all have different feels and prices, too. First up: Boina vasca Elosegui Exposición fina 100% lana... -

Flying through PHL. Rocking that 13” French Oloron Saint Marie 1980, Handya. #nofilter -
Berets, Anyone?
@Mm25 – you’re on it! Eagle eye. Thanks for sharing these links. I like the site you found with the vintage labels. I bet it’s not too hard to have someone see these on or try a little hand sewing myself! With they were Spanish labels instead of French. Would be decadent to add vintage French... -
Berets, Anyone?
Any of you guys have one of these Laulhere berets? They look super cool with all the old vintage labels sewn on the outside as adornments. However, that sticker price :eek::eek:! And that doesn’t even include VAT or shipping!! -

Berets, Anyone?
Too bad I’m not a 61cm, otherwise I’d be eager for a “chest sale” from your collection, @Daan. -

Berets, Anyone?
Oh gotcha. That was a propeller/turbine for a tugboat. And not a beret! Gotcha. Still a cool photo. -
Berets, Anyone?
Hey @Philipe — I remember you posting a b&w picture of you wearing a black beret standing in front of what looked like a wind turbine. Would you repost that and mention the context? I thought it was a very unique pic. -
Berets, Anyone?
Thanks for this post, @Daan — you have a great collection of berets! I especially love seeing all the berets with linings that have extra cross stitching. The two that I have like that seem to be a bit stiffer and hold their shape more than others. Also glad to see the Velcro ones — that’s... -

I remember you tried selling this one but no bites. This the one Dennis made for you? -
Berets, Anyone?
They’re all brand new. In Spanish pulgadas, not French pouces. -
Berets, Anyone?
Sure enough! That’s also my fave of the 4. I’m surprised by how thick the Spanish are and how thin the French one is. La Encartada felted the thickest wools. I love how they hold tight lines and shapes. Not floppy whatsoever. Also — hello, 1995! They’ve held up amazingly well. Quality and... -
Berets, Anyone?
Fellas — I haven’t said Mail Call since I was in the Army, but today I finally got my latest Gorostiaga package and I’m so happy! Some of these are nearly impossible to find (La Encartada, 150 Años Elosegui) and I’m really grateful to now have these for the rest of my days. I also bought some... -

Looks good @Mm25 – is that one you bought or were issued? -
Berets, Anyone?
I’m in Colorado skiing, but didn’t wear my beret on the slopes! Got my Icelandic fur hat instead. Back to berets next week! -
Berets, Anyone?
Perfect jacket pairing. Lotsa good combos going on @Mm25! -
Berets, Anyone?
I’m with you on the 11-12” range feeling right. I have the 1858 in 13” and it’s definitely the larges I’ll ever wear. I’ve been thinking about even smaller ones, like a 10”! -
