Leather caps and hats, rugged, good-looking and weather-proof, are perfect chapeaux for fall and winter wear. Try on some leather newboys from Scala for yourself, like The Antonio, a patch cap, or The Angus (in rich, substantial suede leather we call "wolverine") or maybe The Justin, a classic eight-panel cap. Grab a Wigens cold weather ball cap for your head while you're at it. The Knut in creamy elk leather is a good bet, and so is the rugged Bjorn with its plush sheepskin lining, or maybe even The Baltic (with its fleece lined earflaps). See what I mean? Talk about warm and comfy! Scala's USA-made Colby, an all-leather ivy cap, features an elasticized sweatband for an added level of comfort. But it's the Quilcene you'll want for a soft-as-cashmere lambskin ivy cap. This is one very fine lid with a contrast, sewn-down brim and tab at back to snug it up, as is The Sven from Wigens (stand-out in Rust or Green), and The Gustav, warmly lined and made from unblemished shearling lambskin. Mr. Sam Saba (of the Great White North) also offers ivy caps made from only the best Nappa leather and fashioned with fleece-lined drop-down earflaps. Too comfortable for words, really. [more]
