A soft hat is a type of headwear that is typically made from a lightweight material and is designed to be comfortable and stylish. The three most common types of soft hats are the FEDORA, the BERET, and the porkpie. A FEDORA is a hat with a wide brim and a creased crown, typically made of felt or straw. A BERET is a round, flat-crowned hat made of wool or cotton. A porkpie is a hat with a flat top and a rounded brim, usually made of felt or straw.
