Product Insights
Made from 100% merino wool in a felted construction. One size with an adjustable rear tab; wool felt gives only limited stretch, so fit to your actual head measurement. Embroidered ventilation eyelets help, but dense felt limits breathability compared with a knit cap. Spot clean only — do not wash, bleach, professionally clean, tumble dry or iron. Merino felt prioritises softness over maximum abrasion resistance; a wool felt hat can serve several years of regular wear. At 125 CAD, value rests on Drake's branding, merino felt and Portuguese construction rather than technical performance.
Verified claims
- Design
- Six-panel baseball-cap silhouette with a curved rigid peak and embroidered crest patches.
- Material
- Made from 100% merino wool in a felted construction.
- Color
- The Indigo colorway reads as deep navy, with multicolour crest patches providing contrast.
- Fit
- One size with an adjustable rear tab; wool felt gives only limited stretch, so fit to your actual head measurement.
- Adjustability
- Adjustable rear strap with a metallic buckle for fit tuning.
- Comfort
- Inner sweatband lines the base of the crown to absorb perspiration and cushion the forehead.
- Breathability
- Embroidered ventilation eyelets help, but dense felt limits breathability compared with a knit cap.
- Warmth
- A warm cool-weather cap; felt is warmer than a knit of similar weight.
- Skin feel
- Merino's fine fibres make it soft next to skin; wool sensitivity is usually about fibre diameter.
- Durability
- Merino felt prioritises softness over maximum abrasion resistance; a wool felt hat can serve several years of regular wear.
- Construction
- Felt's interlocked fibre network helps the curved peak and crown hold their shape better than woven fabric.
- Care

- Care technique
- For marks, dab with a barely damp cloth and mild wool detergent, then air dry away from direct heat.
- Storage
- Store crown-up or loosely stuffed, not folded, and keep it sealed against moths.
- Patches
- Decorative crests are embroidered thread patches stitched onto the cap, not chenille or leather appliqués.
- Styling
- A deep navy baseball cap with colourful crests — casual and smart-casual rather than formal.
- Brand positioning
- Made in Portugal as part of Drake's British-heritage accessories line.
- Value
- At 125 CAD, value rests on Drake's branding, merino felt and Portuguese construction rather than technical performance.
