In the year 1840, Lucien Laulhère established the Laulhère
company in Oloron-Sainte-Marie (Béarn), manufacturing handmade traditional
berets known as the ‘béret Basque’.
175 years later, Laulhère’s goal is to continue this ancient tradition, to
ensure a national treasure lives on. Using only first class raw materials, all Laulhère’s berets
are made in France. The manufacturing technique has been developed over 170
years and has changed very little, producing a unique felted wool, velvety to
the touch, yet waterproof and amazingly resistant.
Laulhère’s hand
crafted headwear can only be found in one place, the Laulhère beret factory in
Oloron-Sainte-Marie. The attention to detail and unique hands on approach is
what makes Laulhère the quality product it is today.
