Traditional Wool Beret Imported from France by Laulhere. Laulhere, a 174-year-old beret-maker, is fighting to keep the quintessential French headgear French. Laulhere became the country’s sole maker of traditional berets after it recently bought Blancq-Olibet, its only French competitor, which was almost 200 years old. Based in the foothills of the Pyrenees, where the round, flat woollen hat was invented by shepherds to protect themselves from the Basque damp, Laulhere has joined the front lines of the battle for the ‘Made in France’ label as foreign-made berets steal a greater share of a shrinking market. On its website, Laulhere says: “To us ‘Made in France’ still means something.”

A quality piece of craftsmanship
There are only things to like about this beret if you are a beret lover. Beautifully crafted of excellent wool with a leather band. Admittedly they have gone up in price, a lot, since I got my first one from this company many years ago for $25.00 USD but when something lasts 10 years because it is quality the annual cost is only 2 or 3 times at Starbucks. Keeps the head very warm, folds into a coat pocket or down the sleeve of whatever jacket I am wearing for safe keeping. I don't mind the complements I get about it one bit and I get to show those who ask, "Yes, it is a real French beret."

A beautifully crafted beret which should last decades.
Berets are so practical and handsome but genuine quality French berets have been unavailable. Not only do I praise its perfect style and rugged construction but multiple sizes make for perfect fit.

These are best berets in the world
These are best berets in the world! Bar none. I own two and will go for more over the years. I might even branch out to another color eventually.
