Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What size is this Chanel Wool Newsboy Hat? A: This hat is marked size 57, which generally suits a head circumference of about 57 cm, or roughly 22.4 inches. For the best fit, measure around the widest part of your head and compare it with the labelled size.
Q: Is size 57 considered a medium? A: Yes, size 57 is commonly considered around a medium in designer hat sizing. Fit can still vary slightly depending on head shape, hairstyle, and how you prefer a newsboy cap to sit.
Q: What are the key features of this hat? A: This vintage Chanel piece is crafted in navy blue wool with red and white stitching, finished with silver-tone hardware and a black logo jacquard lining. It is made in France and has the soft, rounded baker boy silhouette associated with a classic newsboy style.
Q: What condition is the hat in? A: The hat is listed in very good vintage condition with light traces of use. The interior is also noted as very good, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches consistent with gentle wear.
Q: How should a newsboy hat fit? A: A newsboy hat should feel secure but not tight. The brim should sit comfortably above the eyes, while the crown keeps its fuller, rounded shape without looking stretched or overly loose.
Q: How do I care for a vintage wool Chanel hat? A: Wool is best cared for gently. Spot clean only when needed with a soft cloth or brush, avoid soaking, and keep the hat away from heavy rain, direct heat, and prolonged sunlight. Store it clean in a cool, dry place and lightly support the crown with tissue to help maintain its shape.
Q: Can a wool newsboy hat be reshaped if it becomes slightly misshapen? A: Yes, light reshaping is usually possible. Gentle steam and careful hand shaping can help refresh the crown, but avoid over-wetting the fabric or using high heat. Let it dry naturally while supported so the original silhouette is preserved.
Q: Does this hat come with any additional items? A: No additional items are included with this hat. Everything provided with the piece is reflected in the product information.
Q: How is a vintage Chanel hat authenticated? A: Vintage Chanel hats are generally authenticated through a combination of labels, construction quality, lining, stitching, hardware, fabric choice, and overall workmanship rather than one single detail alone. This is especially important with older Chanel pieces, where condition and period-specific details can vary.
Q: When is a wool newsboy hat best worn? A: Wool makes this style especially well suited to autumn, winter, and cooler spring days. It pairs particularly well with tailoring, knitwear, trench coats, and structured outerwear for a polished vintage-inspired look.
