BASIC BERET-Navy

This beret is characterized by its compact silhouette, approximately one size smaller than the D-00022 BERET.

Made from a moderately thick, medium-weight material, it's easy to tilt to the side or back, allowing you to enjoy various styling arrangements.

As a staple item since its launch as the brand's first collection, this beret is crafted from the finest merino wool, known for its fine fibers and soft touch. The material boasts a charming texture with the unique fullness and softness of wool, achieved through a fulling process.

The inner sweatband is elastic, ensuring a comfortable and snug fit on the head, making it exceptionally easy to wear. This design achieves a beautiful silhouette and stable depth, characteristic of Japanese craftsmanship. Furthermore, it offers excellent moisture-wicking and heat retention properties, and its material is sustainable, returning to the earth.

Berets have a long history, said to originate from close-fitting headwear called "pileus" in ancient Greece and Rome. The current form emerged around the 15th-16th centuries when the "biretta" worn by Catholic clergy spread to the Basque region near the French-Spanish border and became popular among farmers. In the 19th century, Napoleon III called it the "Basque beret," leading to its global spread.

In the early 20th century, the French Alpine military adopted it as a cap, and during World War II, Kangol berets were adopted as caps by the British military, gaining further popularity thanks to General Bernard Montgomery, a celebrated hero, who favored them. Since then, they have been adopted by armies worldwide, including the American Green Berets.

In France, prominent artists like Picasso and Rodin wore them, and in Japan, influenced by artists who studied in Paris, painters and literary figures favored them from the early Showa period. Today, they are cherished as a versatile fashion item, regardless of gender or age.
