Fedora
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A fedora is a hat. The name of the hat comes from a play called Victorien Sardou, Fédora.[1] Popular in the early 20th century, it has become a stereotype for gangsters or Private Investigators (PIs)[source?].
They mainly come in black, sometimes with a band of coloured fabric around the rim.
Some people, such as Jack Abramoff and Richard W. Lariviere, become known for wearing fedoras.
