Tartan wool and the newsboy cap shape have been paired together since the early 1900s, when working men in Britain and Ireland wore checked wool caps as everyday headwear. This version keeps that heritage intact with a traditional eight-panel construction in 100% wool, lined with quilted fabric for warmth during cold months.
The tartan pattern is multi-colour rather than a single-clan design, which means it pairs with a wider range of clothing than a specific tartan would. The quilted lining traps heat without adding bulk, and the cap sits close to the head for a clean profile under collars and hoods.

When to Wear It
Autumn walks, winter markets, weekend pub visits, countryside outings, and any cold-weather occasion where you want warmth with a bit of character. The tartan pattern works particularly well with plain coats and jackets, where it adds visual interest at the top of an otherwise simple outfit.
Sizing
Measure around your head above the ears. S/M fits 55-57cm, L/XL fits 58-60cm. The quilted lining adds a small amount of snugness, so if you are on the border between sizes, choose the larger option.
