Soft Bowler Hat Handmade Wool Felt Derby Four Colours Flexible
Couldn't load pickup availability
Most bowler hats are stiff. The dome holds its shape rigidly, and the brim curls at a fixed angle that never changes. This soft bowler takes a different approach. The wool felt is left flexible rather than stiffened with shellac, which means the dome has a gentle give when pressed and the brim moves rather than resisting. The result is a bowler that is more comfortable for extended wear and more forgiving of handling than its stiff counterparts.
Handmade from 100% premium wool felt with a grosgrain band around the dome base. Available in four colours: black, burgundy, teal, and royal blue. Sized in S/M (55-57cm) and L/XL (58-60cm) for a fit that covers the most common adult head measurements.

Soft vs Stiff Bowler Hats
A stiff bowler holds a perfect dome shape permanently and is the traditional construction used since 1849. A soft bowler is more relaxed, more modern in feel, and more comfortable during all-day wear. If you want the classic, rigid bowler silhouette, choose the English bowler derby hat. If you want the bowler shape with added comfort and flexibility, this soft version provides that at a lower price point.
