Today we bring you a very special post. If in other blogs we talked about “The 12 types of hats you need to know” or “The definitive guide to choose your ideal hat”, it is necessary to go a little deeper into another of the most important characteristics of a hat: the types of crown.
This way, you will be able to choose more consciously and be much more accurate when buying the perfect hat.
Each one of the crowns has its own characteristics and details. Are you ready? Keep reading!
The most famous types of crowns
There are a variety of crowns, although the most common are five. All of them are easily identifiable if you pay attention to them.
Round Crown
This type of hat crowns are unmistakable due to their dome shape. Besides, they will not present any wrinkle thanks to their shape and are usually used in Pamelas or cloché hats.
Center dent
It has a single fold in the center of the crown with a depth of usually 1-2 inches. It is widely used in Fedora, recognizable by the “pinch” shape it creates.
Diamond Crown
Its name derives from the diamond shape it has when viewed from above. Although it is the least worn style of these five, its design makes the hat more elegant.
In short, it is a goblet shape formed by four folds and a curved appearance. It is typical of contemporary models.
Water drop or teardrop crown
This type of crown is halfway between the split and the diamond crowns. It has a teardrop shape when viewed, again, from above. This figure makes the crown more pointed at one end and slightly curved at the other.
Oval crown
The oval or round crown is easily recognizable by its simple circular shape. It is much more prevalent and is a distinctive attribute of Porkpie hats. This crown provides a classic elegance and a retro note.
