Matador Berets

Following yesterday's post on matador Morante de la Puebla, here some evidence that bullfighting must have been quite popular among beret wearers at some stage.

The label below is actually a contemporary model by Hills Hats from New Zealand. Despite the label stating otherwise, the beret is actually made in Pakistan and then lined, labeled and packed in New Zealand - that way being legally allowed to claim "Made in NZ".
