Size chart

Choosing a size
If you are right between two sizes, choose the larger one – a beret is better slightly loose than too tight. No tape measure? Wrap a piece of string around your head, mark it and measure it against a ruler.
How to wear the beret
Put the beret on straight so the trim sits about two fingers' width above your eyebrows. The emblem sits at the front above the left eye; pull the excess fabric down to the right, towards the ear.
Care
- Remove dust and lint with a soft clothes brush
- Treat stains carefully by hand with lukewarm water – not in the washing machine

- Please also follow the instructions on the care label

Frequently asked questions

Is the emblem embroidered or printed?
Embroidered. Embroidery is more durable than a print: it can't peel or crack and keeps its colour for years.

Which colour should I choose?
Black is the timeless classic that goes with everything. Burgundy and dark green add a touch of colour – and make the red and yellow emblem stand out even more.
