"The Nevis" is a classic flat cap (sometimes referred to as an Ivy or Driver's cap) that will look great for most head shapes.

Constructed from certified Harris Tweed and inspired by our trips up the rugged Ben Nevis, the highest of Scotland's peaks, each cap is carefully stitched to protect you from whatever conditions you might face on your daily adventures.

The 6cm (2 and 3/8 inch) brim offers your eyes more protection than most flat caps - come rain or shine. The unique slightly deeper cut of the Nevis ensures a comfortable and secure fit.

Our Harris Tweed is sourced from traditional producers in the Scottish Outer Hebrides.  Woven on treadle-powered looms, every inch of the fabric is dyed, spun and woven on these remote islands using skills passed down the generations.  These techniques are low impact and only use natural raw materials.

Each of our caps carries a certification "orb" label from the Harris Tweed Authority so you can be assured this is the genuine article.

Wool has made a real resurgence in recent years due to it's wonderful natural properties.  Warm in winter and breathable in summer, 100% wool fabrics are far superior to cheaper polyester or wool mix materials.  That's why we choose to only use pure wool tweeds in our ranges of Harris and Irish tweed caps.

If you are not sure what your hat size is, please follow these simple instructions to find your size.

Measure your head at the level you would want the hat to sit at when you are wearing it.  This can vary a little according to your personal preference, but normally it would be across the middle of the forehead, pass a thumb’s width above your ears and around the widest part of the back of your head. 

Use a tape measure or a piece of string to find your size in centimetres.

Once you have the measurement in centimetres, this should be the hat size for you.  You may wish to move up or down one size if you prefer a particularly loose or tight fit.
