Bailey 1922: Cross Crown

Cross crown hats use intersecting creases across the top of the crown to create a more sculpted, dimensional appearance. The added shaping gives this crown a distinctive character without overwhelming the overall silhouette. It can complement structured fedoras and wide-brim hats, particularly when paired with clean lines and understated trim.
