They called it the Paddy cap
Alex is a classic flat cap - worn and loved across the British Isles for generations. It's also the style that sailed from Ireland to America in the 19th century on the heads of Irish immigrants looking for a better tomorrow. On the streets of New York, it became so recognizable that Americans called it the "Paddy cap" - after the name they used for the Irish. Alex is all clean lines, balanced proportions, and a low, elegant profile. A flat cap with a rich backstory, made from fabric by Magee - a mill that's been weaving Donegal Tweed since 1866. No wonder a cap like this had to be part of the Sterkowski 100th Anniversary collection.
