The Tyrolean hat is similar in shape to the Fedora. It is named after the the Tyrol region in the Alps and is typically made of felt with a corded hat band and a side feather.
They are a favorite during Oktoberfest festivities and can be adorned with various Edelweiss pins with feathers and boars hair, and an assortment of colorful hat pins.
