For twenty-nne years the Berkeley Hat Company hat store has had the largest and most complete selection of headwear in California. We've got the Best Brands, we've got the Best Styles and we've got the Best Prices.

We've got Homburgs, Derbies, Porkpies, Italian straw Boater Hats, Gamblers, Diplomat Hats, Panama Hats, Milan Hats, straw Fedoras and felt Fedoras of all descriptions. We've even got nine kinds of Top Hats. Our selection of Men's Caps is unequaled. We even have Fiddler Caps for "Fiddler on the Roof." Although it's best to buy in season, we always have a good collection of both felt hats and straw hats for every season all the time. Our dress hats mainly come from Italy, England, the Czech Republic, the US, Canada and Australia. We've got Borsalino, Dobbs, Stetson, Biltmore, Beaver, French Basque Berets, Bailey, Akubra, Scala, Pinzano, Dorfman and some great ones you wouldn' t recognize. We've got casual hats too.
Ladies dress hats you have to see to believe. No hat shop has more. No hat shop has better. And none has more beautiful. A huge selection of millinery welcomes you as you enter and look up toward our high ceilings and more rackfulls are awaiting you inside. All the colors you're looking for are here and Red Hats abound. Of course we have Jack McConnell and Mr. John, but there's so much more.
In ladies casual hats Canada is Queen. Their soft knit wools, pliable felts and cottons are unsurpassed and so is our Canadian collection. From simple cotton berets to the most exotic shapes, we' ve got 'em. Domestic & European hats---we've got them too. Crushable raffia hats, ribbon hats and toyo hats from San Diego Hat Company, Scala and many others.
Our standard wool beret comes in over 25 colors and 3 diameters. Does anyone carry a 14 inch beret? We do. Compare our Basque Beret with anyone elses. We've got a better one(tighter and more waterproof) and we've probably got theirs too. We've got leather berets, military berets, cotton berets, large & small knit and crochet berets.
The newest generation of leather hats is from Australia. Feather light, they never lose their shape with their reeded edge. Put them in their little bag when you're done. Wear them in the rain. Still want the look of an American leather hat, they' re better than ever and we've got 'em. Leather and suede caps--too many to describe.
This year we've got the best selection of Irish caps(where it all started), English caps, Scottish caps Italian Borsalino caps and cotton & wool Greek caps we've ever had, or maybe anybody's ever had. We've got a great selection of KANGOL caps including fuzzy Kangols, wool Kangols and Ventair Kangols, and a huge array of great wool tweed caps and solid color wool caps and lots of leather caps. We've got a full assortment of Greek Fisherman's caps, Yacht caps and Captain's hats and of course the famous Fiddler Cap from "Fiddler on theRoof" In baseball caps, we're weak in logos, but if you want a style or fabric, we've got it.
