Made to Order Tam O'Shanter

Stewart Christie & Co. Tam O'Shanter is a tweed beret style hat featuring a leather band and beautiful country feather brooch. This style is named after the hero in a Robert Burns poem - Tam o’ Shanter.

Tam's story is now well known - Burns's Tam gave his name to the traditional Scottish bonnet he wore, which has been known as a Tam O'Shanter since the early 19th century. Made of wool, originally they were hand knitted in one piece, stretched on a wooden disc to give the distinctive flat shape and then felted. The Tam O'Shanter is then decorated with a woollen ball or ‘toorie’ at the centre.
