From 26 September through 19 October 2024, South Pacific Berets is away from it's base in Aotearoa.

Part holiday, part beret fact finding mission and part visiting some of the beret manufacturers in France and Spain, timely delivery of beret purchases may suffer.

During my absence, some orders will be fulfilled within the usual 24 hours; however, it may be on 20 October that your beret ships. All orders placed before 26 September (NZT) will be shipped within hours!

Thank you all for your understanding.

South Pacific Berets is an on-line store dedicated to the Basque Beret. 


It all started in 2008, when searching for information about the Basque Beret and finding there was practically nothing available in English and very little in French and Spanish. There seemed to be a clear need for a book on berets. And with the work on the manuscript came a blog, 'The Beret Project'.
It didn't take long to discover that I wasn't the only person fascinated by this humble, but age old piece of headgear. I discovered that thousands of people from literally all over the world were interested in the beret and keen to find out more - including where to buy quality berets and, wanting to share my passion for this headgear, I looked for ways to let more people enjoy the pleasure of wearing a traditionally made quality beret. South Pacific Berets, and later Boneteria Aotearoa, is the result.

These days South Pacific Berets is by far the most specialized beret shop anywhere in the world, stocking berets in a huge variety of colours, diameters and sizes; in merino wool, cotton linen and modern manmade materials, with and without headband; everyday use workers berets and top of the line impermeable luxurious berets.
More than being "just" a retailer, I am passionate about my products and always happy to engage with my customers, work on special requests, do historical research, go out of my way to answer beret-related questions.
