    Berets, Anyone?

    Hey @Edward — check out this post below Daan put up back in 2020 about the reason the military has that a history of pulling the beret to the Left. Personally, I stay away from wearing my boinas in a manner that might evoke military associations or pulled back like Ché, and definitely no stars...

    Thought you fellas might appreciate this. I got this nice silver Pyrrha pin as a gift and thought it would look good on my boina. While not looking to redo a chasseur alpin look, it does remind me of that beret style a little. At least I like it better than the Laulhere.

    Pure classic. Mine has the leather band, and while I’ve said before that it feels like a proper hat when I wear it, I also noticed that it does leave a pink band on my forehead even if the size is correct for me.

    I love these posts, @Daan — you have a talent for posting about the new and the old, all tied to the beret/boina/txapela. You reckon the guy with the hammer is French because of the gallo? (Rooster)

    Yes, the original post has a picture the user embedded. I replied to his post. The image is no longer viewable and just includes the link.
