Tyrolean hats

Tyrolean hats are traditional headwear from the Tyrol region, spanning Austria and northern Italy. Typically made from felt or wool, they feature distinctive trims such as feathers, brush attachments, or decorative bands, reflecting regional and cultural identities. These hats are associated with Alpine culture, serving as both practical protection against weather and cultural symbols during festivals and celebrations. Their design can vary from simple to ornate, often representing local heritage and pride. Today, Tyrolean hats are also popular in folk costumes and as fashion statements, symbolizing Alpine tradition with a timeless, rustic appeal.
