Captain Starlight Trilby

Part Gentleman, Part Outlaw, All Style

The Captain Starlight Trilby is pure character — short-brimmed, sharp-crowned, and laced with legend. Inspired by bushrangers, gamblers, and midnight wanderers, this is a hat with swagger and soul. Its 5cm cut brim and 9cm tailored crown carries just the right amount of trouble, tempered by charm—extensively vented, semi-transparent, extremely strong, and light.

Dyed in deep starlit tones it walks the line between dressed and wild, heritage and rebellion. It’s the trilby you wear when you want to walk in slow, tip it just so, and leave when the story’s getting good.

✦ Key Features

• 5cm Trilby Brim
  Short, sculpted, and sharp — turns up in the back and slices forward at the brow—pure attitude with structure.

• 9cm Tapered Crown
  Crisp and elegant. A classic fedora-style shape refined into a compact, confident form.

• Deep Dyed Straw
  Rich toquilla straw in dark, earthy tones — deep navy, dusty bronze, or moonlit grey. Wears in like a favourite leather boot.

• Lightweight & Built for Adventure
  Handwoven in Ecuador, breathable, and made to move. Holds its shape whether you’re on a rooftop or outback.

• Finished with Edge
  Usually trimmed in a black grosgrain band  - a nod to the romantic rogue.

✦ Why It Works

The Captain Starlight is for those who travel light but live richly. It adds character without effort, and authority without arrogance. This is a hat with stories in the weave — a companion piece, not a costume.

It’s often worn by musicians, wanderers, stylists, and storytellers — people who carry themselves like a question mark wrapped in charm. The kind of person who knows how to disappear and arrive.

• Smaller heads and sharp features — this shape frames beautifully

• Creative professionals, rebels with polish, and modern outlaws

• Music festivals, desert sunsets, rooftop bars, late-night trains

• Deep-toned wardrobes, black denim, natural leather, and charm

• Anyone who lives between the stars and the dust

• Available in a natural edge, black grosgrain edge and the wider brim fedora. Please tell me what you like.
