Béret Basque Sare Pure Laine Imperméable Noir - Élosegui

Sare Black Basque Beret Pure Wool Waterproof – Élosegui

Authentic, elegant and designed to last, the Sare Black Basque Beret – Élosegui is a true benchmark for traditional berets.

Made in the Spanish Basque Country by Élosegui, a historic beret specialist, the Sare is crafted from 100% pure virgin wool and features a waterproof finish that is particularly appreciated when the weather turns damp.

With its traditional crown of approximately 28 cm, fine inner lining, salpa leather comfort band and timeless black color, it offers an excellent balance of Basque tradition, comfort, protection and elegance.

A genuine Basque beret made in the Spanish Basque Country

The beret is closely linked to the history and culture of the Pyrenees. With the Sare model, Élosegui perpetuates this tradition from the Spanish Basque Country.

Its round shape, generous crown and traditional cabillou at the top immediately give it the characteristic look of a genuine Basque beret.

More than a simple fashion accessory, the Sare is a traditional headwear piece designed for everyday wear.

100% pure virgin wool: warmth, flexibility and comfort

The Sare is crafted from 100% virgin wool.

Wool is particularly suited to beret making: it provides a flexible, comfortable and naturally insulating material while retaining a beautiful shape.

The Sare is therefore an excellent choice for autumn and winter, as well as for cool mid-season days.

A waterproof beret to face the elements

One of the main advantages of the Sare Élosegui Beret is its waterproof finish.

It helps the beret better withstand the elements while retaining the elegant, traditional appearance of wool.

You can therefore enjoy a genuine Basque beret that will accompany you in both cold weather and more humid conditions.

A traditional crown of approximately 28 cm

The Sare has a diameter of approximately 28 cm, corresponding to a traditional crown with enough material to shape the beret according to your preferences.

You can wear it centered for an understated look or tilt the crown slightly to one side to achieve the iconic silhouette of the Basque beret.

This diameter is an excellent compromise: generous enough to give the beret character without reaching the volume of large military or Alpine crowns.

An inner lining for added comfort

Inside, the Sare features a fine lining that improves wearing comfort and provides a more refined finish.

This design notably distinguishes the Sare from some simpler berets and contributes to its more refined positioning in the Élosegui collection.

An inner salpa leather band

The inner edge is completed with a salpa leather comfort band.

It helps keep the beret in place on the head and adds an extra traditional finish.

Combined with the inner lining and pure virgin wool, it makes the Sare a particularly pleasant model to wear.

Black: the great classic of the Basque beret

The black Basque beret remains the most iconic and probably the easiest version to wear.

Understated and timeless, it pairs equally well with a coat, a wool jacket or a blouson as with a more casual outfit.

Its black color, right down to the cabillou, reinforces its traditional character and makes it suitable for both men and women.

How to wear a Sare Basque beret?

The Basque beret offers many styling possibilities.

For a traditional look, place the beret horizontally, then slightly lower the crown to one side.

For a more contemporary style, you can wear it more centered or slightly toward the back.

The flexibility of wool makes it easy to alter its drape and find the silhouette that best suits your face.

How do you choose the size of your Basque beret?

To choose your Sare, measure your usual head circumference using a tape measure.

Position it about 1 cm above the eyebrows and ears, where the beret will naturally sit.

The tape measure should remain in contact with the head without being too tight.

Example: if your head circumference measures 58 cm, choose size 58 cm.

How should you care for your pure wool Sare beret?

To preserve the wool, shape and finishes of your beret, opt for gentle hand cleaning.

Avoid unnecessarily soaking the beret and allow it to dry naturally at room temperature, away from a radiator or any other direct heat source.

After use, you can also brush it gently to remove surface dust.
