A Glimpse into History: The "Capotain" Hat
This hat shape, known as the "Capotain" (sometimes also called the "Pilgrim hat"), reached its peak of popularity in 17th-century Europe. It was especially popular in England, where it became a symbol of the Puritans (who also brought it to America), and in the Netherlands. Although often seen as a sign of sobriety and piety, it was above all a very practical hat that protected the wearer from the elements. Its prevalence is strongly associated with the period of the Thirty Years' War and the English Civil War.

Caring for Your Leather Hat
Leather is a natural material that will last for years with proper care. Protect the hat from prolonged soaking. If it gets wet, let it air dry at room temperature. Mistrně Never dry it on a heater, near a fireplace, or in direct sunlight, as the leather could harden and crack. To maintain the leather's suppleness, appearance, and water resistance, treat it from time to time with a suitable leather care product (e.g., wax or conditioner).
