Pilgrim Hats
Big buckle shoes, black and white clothes, and dinner with the Indians may all make you think of pilgrims, but nothing better defines the outfit and the costume that our pilgrim hats. We have pilgrim hats to fit adult and kids so your whole family can get in on the fun. Your pilgrim hat does not have to be just for Halloween, either. You can reenact the first Thanksgiving for your school or community play when you dress up as a pilgrim and wear your pilgrim hat. We have bonnets for the ladies as well, so no one has to be left out in the cold. Pilgrim hats were also called capotains and were popular in Europe. The style was carried over to the states with the first settlers and is depicted in several famous artistic renditions of the first supper. The main reason for the hat was the wide brim that protected the face from the sun and shaded the eyes for better visibility.
