Recommended Posts

A simple question...

Most (cocked) hats I see are black or something dark. Is this a mather of fasion,

backed up by archeological, pictorial or written evidence?

Or do we al think that dark collored hats are cooler then white, beighe or pink ones...blink.gif

I could be wrong but I believe that the black blanks were at more readily available to reenactor for some time. I still see more black blanks than other colors but as to that being historically accurate I wouldn't know. My two cents should makes things as clear as mud for you. :lol:
