A beret is usually a soft hat without a brim, and its design features include:
No brim design: The classic feature of a beret is that it has no brim, which makes it softer and easier to fold and carry.
Historical origin: The beret originated from shepherds in southwestern France in the 15th century. The round soft hats without brims they wore were the prototypes of the beret.
Modern use: Berets are not only used in the military, but have also become a popular item in the fashion industry. Their brimless design allows them to be flexibly matched with various styles.
It should be noted that although traditional berets have no brims, there are also some variants of berets with brims in modern designs, which are usually designed to meet specific fashion or functional needs. However, these berets with brims do not fall into the category of traditional berets.
