History of Gangster Hats

Gangster Hats are back in style and as popular as ever. Is it because of all the celebrities wearing gangster hats? I think this has played a big part in the reemergence of the gangster hats. Although there are many types of gangster hats, one of the most popular styles are Gangster Fedora Hats.

Fedora hats were introduced in the late 1800's and worn by the upper class depicting a sign of wealth. Then around the 1940 cinema era, stylish Fedora hats were worn by movies most famous detectives and gangsters. Which then caused them to just be referred to as Gangster Hats.

One of the most popular gangster hat wearing stars was the legendary Humphrey Bogart. But now there are numerous celebrities(both men and women) wearing this once again popular gangster hat. For instance, stars like Brad Pitt, Johnny Depp, Ving Rhames, Angelina Jolie and one of the newest celebrities wearing Gangster Fedora hats is Matt Bomer or better known as Neal Caffrey from the hit show White Collar .

Fedora Gangster Hats

The Gangster Fedora Hat is probably the most popular style of gangster hats and are worn by men and women of all ages. But in the early days one of the Fedora Gangster hat, you were supposed to be able to tell something about its wearer by how they wore it. For example if the hat was tilted and brim flipped in various ways, it created a rebellious or dangerous effect. Also how a person handled their Fedora Gangster hat portrayed a sense of class and style.

With the popularity of the gangster hats today and considering the wide range of people wearing them, you probably will not find the rules of etiquette to be quite the same, say as when they were worn by such celebrities of the early 1900's like Humphrey Bogart in "Casablanca " or even one the most infamous of "Gangsters", Al Capone.

What's Your Favorite Celebrity Gangster Hat

Totally cool hats! My son would look good in one of those.

MyMastiffPuppies 21 months ago

I love the hats too, I wish my oldest son would wear one but I think I would have better luck getting my 7 yr old to wear one. He's a little fireball! Thanks for stopping by!

OH I just love hats! I like the white gangsta hat the best. I prefer wide brims. My favorite hats are the ones worn during the Edwardian era... Feathers, flowers, big. YUP love it.

MyMastiffPuppies 14 months ago

I like the wide brims too, not sure I could pull off the feathers and flowers though. But hats can be so much fun and they really add to your ensemble!

I wish more men would wear more gangster styles, keep the sports caps for casual activities, but gangster hats are great for dressier outfits. London Fog type coats look better with gangster hats than caps.

Ladies always look nice with gangster hats, especially the Fedoras.

The younger guys who are wearing those caps every way except straight just might improve with a hat with more class, if only occasionally. :)
