Welcome back, bucket hat!

Topic overview

What is a bucket hat?
What bucket hats can do
Bang on trend!

The accessory with cult status from the 90s is experiencing a comeback. Although the casual hats divide fashion tastes to this day, people keep coming back to this style. Here you can find out why bucket hats are so much more than a fad.

What is a bucket hat?

Bucket hats are distinguished by their characteristic shape and practical properties. But there is an exciting history behind this versatile accessory.

The origin of the bucket hat

This beautiful hat style is said to date back to the start of the 20th century in Ireland. Made from wool or fur felt, they were worn by Irish fishermen and farmers as protection from the rain and moisture. The lanolin or wool wax that the wool naturally contained made the fishing hats water-repellent.

These days, however, the classic bucket hat is no longer made from wool. It is typically made from more lightweight textiles such as cotton, and is most popular in beige, olive green or camouflage. This can be traced back to the boonie hat, which was worn by US troops in military operations in warmer regions. The American headgear, also known as the bush hat or brim hat differs from the usual bucket hat by having a somewhat wider brim.

Thanks to its lightweight cotton fabric and practical properties, the bucket hat developed over time into an accessory for everyone. The hats are a particularly popular accessory for outdoor activities and travelling.

Anatomy of a bucket hat

Bucket hats are characterised by the hat anatomy typical for this style. With its curves and rounded edges, it’s a real gem. The crown of the classic hat usually consists of at least two sections of fabric: the top and the sides. The typically short but wide brim is also usually made up of two sections of fabric. All of the parts are carefully sewn together to create a cool bucket hat.

A special effect can be achieved by using a contrast-coloured yarn, adding extra decorative seams or an eye-catching patch. The choice of material, colour and pattern means you can find a fabric hat tailored to your tastes and the occasion. Some bucket hats also come with a ribbon or band that can be tied under the chin.

The correct size

Bucket hats are characterised by their relaxed but secure fit. To find the perfect fit, it helps to know your hat size. Hat size depends on your head size, which is easy to figure out. In our help centre, we have put together step-by-step instructions and a size chart.

What bucket hats can do

Although this hat style has long been infamous in the world of fashion, there’s no denying its functionality. Because bucket hats are real all-rounders.

High quality materials

Any time is bucket hat time. High quality materials make bucket hats the ideal choice for the carefree enjoyment of outdoor activities throughout the year.

Spring & summer

In the spring and summer, cotton and linen with their skin-friendly and absorbent properties ensure your head stays cool and comfortable. In addition, many bucket hats come with a high level of UV protection, which protects your skin and hair from harmful sun damage.

Autumn & winter

Waterproof materials make bucket hats excellent as rain hats, offering protection from both wind and wet weather. Rain, moisture and dirt simply pearl off the surface of the hat, so your head and hair are guaranteed to stay nice and dry. Equipped with a warming lining made of fluffy fleece in a teddy fur effect, bucket hats also keep your head and ears cuddly and warm, and are really eye-catching.

How do I look after my bucket hat properly?

Simple but effective: These attractive hats do not need time-consuming care or costly care products. They are made from easy-care textiles such as cotton, linen or polyester, making the care and longevity of these accessories child’s play. Most bucket hats can be cleaned in a quick wash cycle and are ready to wear again in no time. However, a few models may require careful hand washing. When purchasing, make sure to look at our care instructions.

Crushable

Neatly folded or quickly put away in a bag – you can always find space to store bucket hats. Thanks to their crushable finish, bucket hats can be stored without creasing, making them the ideal companion for when you are on the go. Another plus: Bucket hats are incredibly lightweight. Not only do they take up little space, they also weigh next to nothing thanks to the use of lightweight materials – wow, what a hat!

2 in 1 – the reversible hat

If you’re still not convinced, take a close look at this: Because some bucket hats offer twice the enjoyment! Reversible bucket hats are printed on both sides and can be quickly and easily turned inside out. You have a completely new look in the blink of an eye – and all with just one hat!

Bang on trend!

Bucket hats are trendier than ever and loads of people are wearing them. In their natural terrain, bucket hats can still be found in casual and sporty camouflage finishes and muted earth tones worn with wellies and fishing outfits on boats and ships. But this functional accessory is no longer just something for fishermen.

Bucket hats have also become as well-established with stylish street outfits as they are with fishermen. With trendy jeans, trainers and oversized shirts, these hats are really eye-catching and therefore often come in colourful, striking colours or patterns. But this hat style can do even more. Worn with elegant outfits, bucket hats create an exciting break in style that makes the hearts of fashion lovers beat faster. In leopard print, floral or batik patterns combined with feminine summer dresses or refined winter coats, this headgear creates a real wow effect.

DIY – design your own bucket hat

Create a wow effect and design your own bucket hat in a retro batik effect. The famous tie dye pattern can easily be created by hand at home. All you need is a bucket hat, batik textile dye, elastic bands and a container. To achieve the best possible result, your bucket hat should be monochrome in the lightest possible shade and be made of batik-friendly materials such as cotton, linen or viscose.
Caution: Wear rubber gloves when dyeing and washing the hat.

Use elastic bands to tie your bucket hat into a fabric bundle.
Dissolve the dye in water in your container. Please refer to the batik textile dye instructions.
Now place your fabric bundle into your container with the dye mixture and leave it for around an hour. Once again, please refer to the batik textile dye instructions.
Take your bucket hat out of the dye mixture and rinse it with cold water. Now hang it up to dry. Et voilà: Your unique batik hat is ready to make its grand entrance.

Who are bucket hats for?

The wearability of bucket hats is as varied as their functions and properties. Young or old, male or female – bucket hats are great for any age or gender. Discover a wide range of bucket hats for women and men from famous brands such as New Era, Kangol or Lipodo at various price points from low-price to more expensive.
