The Docker hat traces its roots to the 18th and 19th centuries when sailors and fishermen began wearing knitted woolen caps to keep warm while working in cold maritime climates. The design was simple and functional, featuring a snug fit that stayed secure during work and didn’t obstruct vision. The lack of a brim made it especially suitable for working on docks or aboard ships, where bulky hats could get in the way.
Though initially a utilitarian item, the Docker hat has, over time, been embraced by various cultural figures, contributing to its enduring popularity. One of the most iconic wearers of the Docker hat was French ocean explorer, Jacques Cousteau. In more recent years, the Docker hat has found its place in pop culture having being worn by actors like Steve McQueen and Daniel Craig, who added a rugged, stylish touch to the traditional workman’s hat.

How do I find my hat size?
Take a measuring tape and place it at the back of your head. Next, draw both sides of the tape to the front, just above the ears and over the eyebrows, bringing it together roughly in the middle of your forehead. Please be careful not to pull the tape measure too tight. You can now use a mirror to read off your head circumference.
We recommend rounding up the number you see to the next full centimetre (e.g. round 57.5 cm up to 58 cm).
