Chapeau claque

Le chapeau claque - foldable headgear

The hat is a French invention! 

Although the first prototypes were born in London, it was in Paris that the patent was registered, by Antoine Gibus. This is why the hat is also known as the Gibus hat.

It's a collapsibletop hat that can be raised by means of metal springs. The reason it's called this is that all it takes is a simple slap of the hand to restore the hat to its original shape.

If you travel a lot or move around a lot, this hat is the ideal companion. Practical and easy to carry, it will take up little space in your suitcase and won't get damaged.

We offer several models of slap hats, in different shapes and colors, from the most classic to the craziest.
