Bique-les

Boneteria Aotearoa's 'Bique-les' beret line is inspired by the illustrious Spanish Basque beret manufacturer La Encartada (Balmaseda, 1892 - 1992).

Top quality, heavy duty Basque berets in classic black and dark navy, made of 100% fine Australian merino wool. The berets are fitted with a solid cotton lining and carry the woven Bique-les label.

The goat as a symbol of resilience and determination is as old as humanity, in cultures the world over, and is an apt image of what these berets stand for.

The Bique-les range of berets are all 'universels', one-size models that stretch and adjust to the individual wearer's head size and shape.

The diameters range from the very small ≈25cm model to the large Plato Grande / Chasseur in ≈33cm and more in between.

All models $58.00.

The Bique-les berets in cotton are a densely knitted cotton beret in a heavy (>100 gram) weight, fitted with a pure cotton lining and the woven Bique-les label.

Available in black, navy and green @ $52.50.
