Post Civil War Hats

As with earlier time periods, it is important to consider more than the obvious variables when choosing a hat for your impression. We don’t just make hats without understanding the reasons for these details, so, if you’re in doubt, ask your group’s uniform or costuming specialist, or speak with Bill directly.

Headwear styles seemed to change about every decade, and one needs to consider the movement geographically of these styles. Where are you, when are you, and who are you are three important question to ask yourself. The easiest choice would to be very versatile and generic.
