AEGEAN IMPORTS

Aegean is a maker of traditional Greek fisherman hats and other felt hats, all handmade from their ancient atelier on the outskirts of Athens, Greece. The hats have adorned the heads of the Mediterranean’s native fisherman for generations but became an iconic stylish must-have in the 1950s and 1960s when various celebrity clientele were spotted wearing Aegean pieces, most notably John Lennon. Aegean owes its fame to its American licensing partner, Aegean Imports, which was established by two brothers from San Francisco’s Greek diaspora who managed distribution of the brand to the finest hat shops and outfitters across North America. The hats are still made by hand, the old way, in Greece and are available from the most discerning hatters.
