Town Coke
Bowler Hat

The Coke is one of Lock & Co.'s most enduring hat styles. 

The Coke is a very distinctive style thanks to its domed crown and curled brim. Lock & Co. created the iconic Coke hat (also known as the Bowler hat) in 1849 after being commissioned by Edward Coke to create a hat hardy enough to protect his gamekeepers.
