Tan Fedora

A Gender-Bendable Fedora Hat

Fedora hats first rose to popularity in the early 20th century were often worn by both sexes. Though men in the 1920s through the 1950s seemed to take them over. For decades they were the preferred hat of business executives, gangsters, detectives, and journalists. They were seen as a distinctly masculine clothing item. That is until the sexual revolution came on in full force, and we started to see women of all classes wearing them again to represent gender equality. That’s probably part of the reason why a fedora hat like this one is still so popular to this day.
