Borges & Scott Galway Irish Tweed Flat Cap - Nightsky HB (Small 55-58cm)

Timeless warmth meets Irish craft: Borges & Scott Galway Tweed Flat Cap

The Galway is a refined flat-cap that brings together classic silhouette and modern weather-ready details. An outer layer of genuine Irish tweed (100% wool) pairs with a quilted cotton lining in a deep blue herringbone, delivering soft touch, texture, and warmth for cooler days. The slightly lower crown creates a snug fit that stays in place whether you’re strolling along a windy coast, heading to the links, or running errands in town.

Crafted with care, this cap invites you to experience a heritage of Irish weaving. The tweed is produced in one of Ireland’s few surviving mills, a family-run operation with centuries of expertise. The fabric breathes naturally and remains comfortable while easing into a timeless silhouette that looks at home in city streets or rugged landscapes.

Craft, Fit, and Weather-Ready Details

The Galway’s design emphasizes both form and function. A concealed elastic section inside the headband gives a secure, comfortable fit across head sizes, while the quilted lining delivers a soft, skin-friendly feel. The pre-curved peak shields your eyes from sun or spray, and the wool’s natural properties help withstand light rain and snowy days without bulk.

• Genuine Irish tweed woven in a historic Irish mill using 100% wool yarns for authentic texture and durability.
• Elasticated comfort fit inside the headband for a secure, easy-to-wear silhouette.
• Water and stain resistance from the tweed fabric, helping you stay dry and comfortable in mild weather.
• Easy care and travel-friendly design: surface clean with a brush or damp cloth; includes a pre-curved peak.
• Deep blue herringbone cotton lining adds visual contrast and a cozy touch against the skin.

Real-World Uses and Sizing

Whether you’re out fishing, on a shooting day, enjoying a round of golf, or simply exploring the Irish coast, the Galway cap aims to be a reliable companion. It’s designed to be easy to pack and simple to care for, making it a versatile addition to a cool-weather wardrobe.
