Berets, Anyone?
Hey @foamy — hope all is well! Enjoyed many of your early posts. Do you still live in DC? Hear you about the 1858 — the thick, stiff felt is very shapeable. The one I have with the leather headband is my largest vuelo at 13”. I feel great in it and also save it for special days — it has a lot... -

Ah…the sweet and innocent days of 2017! Here’s the post from the trip @Daan took to La Encartada factory after it closed and was reborn as a museum. -

Berets, Anyone?
Thanks @Mm25 — I give @Daan credit for educating me on all the Basque factories, especially the Spanish ones. He would chronicle when they were shutting down as it was happening and post it here in the mid 100s of pages in this thread. When I came back from my first trip to Spain and got the... -

Awesome, @Daan — thanks for following up. My guy at Gorostiaga is digging through his stockpiles and has found me the French “Handya” that I posted about. He’s also found me some new La Encartada boinas, and the Elosegui 150 Años. I’ll post about those here once they arrive! -
Berets, Anyone?
On my way to work today, sporting the Elosegui SL 12” in azul marino. -

Berets, Anyone?
On my mind are some of the members who used to post frequently back in the days before the pandemic broke out. Hope @Bouwerij_Jongen @Nico @alanfgag @foamy are doing well! -
Berets, Anyone?
Lookin’ tough @Mm25! Great angles in the way you shape the beret. Post a pic of the label on the beret? -
Berets, Anyone?
Glad this website is back! A question for @Daan: do you recognize this label? What’s the story? I can’t find anything in the web whatsoever under “Handya” but figure only you would know. -

Berets, Anyone?
in this 2019 post, @Daan reported on how the Basque traditions during Christmas were celebrated. He taught me who “Olentzero” is and it was really cool to figure out who the dude I kept seeing hanging from balconies in Navarra is supposed to be. I took this picture in Puente la Reina, Spain this... -
Berets, Anyone?
@Daan used to post these great stories about the origins of the beret and how they began as knitting work by sheepherders. Here in this 2019 post, check out all the crazy photos of sheepherders on stilts knitting! -
Berets, Anyone?
I’m excited for you @Mm25 – I know the suspense of waiting for your shipment to arrive! Regarding the different styles to wear the beret, in this video the shop owner explains the different regions in Spanish Basque Country. Not sure if you understand Castilian or the closed captions English... -
Berets, Anyone?
