The Amigos de la
Boina is a group of beret enthusiasts, nation-wide across Spain, who come
together regularly to enjoin the finer things of life – berets being one of
these.
It is an attempt to revive the beret to its old glory in
Spain, but also to enjoy the company of like-minded folk, typically in a rustic environment with a good supply of food and wine.
Presently, there are chapters in Cuenca, Madrid, Currito and Denia (Alicante), all with their own web sites (some showing no more than photographic evidence of meetings; others with some interesting information on beret history and manufacturing).
I am a real-deal Spaniard and wear my beret always! I would like to join this Club and Scooby-Doo too!!!!
