Black Wool Newsboy Cap
Available in stock
Our berets come in one size (56–58 cm) and fit most adults from 54 to 59 cm — that's roughly 95% of heads. Not sure about yours? It takes 30 seconds to check.
How to measure your head
- Grab a soft measuring tape — or a piece of string and a ruler.
- Wrap it around your head about 1 cm (½ inch) above your eyebrows and ears — right where the beret's band will sit. Keep it level and snug, but not tight.
- Note the measurement. If you used string, mark where it overlaps and measure it flat against a ruler. Measure twice for accuracy.
Size chart
| Head circumference (cm) | Head circumference (inches) | Standard hat size | Fit in our one-size beret |
|---|---|---|---|
| 54–55 cm | 21¼–21⅝″ | S | Relaxed fit — sits a touch loose, easy to slouch and style |
| 56–57 cm | 22–22½″ | M | Ideal fit — exactly what the beret is cut for |
| 58 cm | 22⅞″ | L | Comfortable fit — secure without pressure |
| 59 cm | 23¼″ | L/XL | Snug at first — wool relaxes up to 1 cm with wear |
A note on stretch & materials
- Wool (most of our berets): naturally flexible — it molds to your head and relaxes up to ~1 cm over the first few wears.
- Cotton & linen: a little structured with slight give; true to the measurements above.
- Leather & faux leather: minimal stretch — best for 54–57 cm heads.
How a beret should sit
The band rests level across your forehead, about 2–3 cm above the eyebrows, with the volume pushed to one side or back. If it leaves a mark after wearing, it's too tight; if it slides when you tilt your head, push the band slightly higher.

How to Wear a Wool Newsboy Cap
A black wool newsboy cap brings warmth and a smart, vintage edge — the wool keeps the chill off, and solid black works with coats, denim and knits. The brim gives it structure a beret doesn't have. For softer styles, see our beret cap range.
Made from warm wool, it holds its panelled shape and keeps you cosy, with one size fitting most heads at 56–58 cm. For other weights and finishes, browse our wool beret collection.
