Midnight Blue Weekender Trilby
Product Details
Elevate your weekday wardrobe with the Midnight Blue Weekender Trilby, a timeless hat that balances understated sophistication with refined practicality.
Crafted from premium rabbit fur felt, this trilby features a naturally sharp edge and exceptional water resistance—ideal for unpredictable British weather. The structured crown, set at 11cm with a measured 4.6cm brim, creates a flattering silhouette that suits most face shapes without overwhelming the wearer.
Style it with tailored trousers and a crisp shirt for boardroom polish, or pair with a wool overcoat and leather shoes for smart-casual confidence. The navy ribbon and black leather sweatband add refined detail, whilst the black satin lining ensures all-day comfort.
Each hat is traditionally crafted to the exacting standards Bates has upheld for generations—a piece designed to last, improve with age, and become a trusted companion for seasons to come.
