Fez (hat)

A fez

The fez (Turkish: fes, plural fezzes or fezes from Arabic "Fas" the main town in Morocco before 1927),[1] as well as its equivalent, the tarboosh (Arabic: طربوش, romanized: ṭarbūsh), is a felt hat.

There are two types of fezzes. One is a cone with a flat top, made of red felt. The other is a short cylinder made of kilim fabric. Both usually have a tassel attached to the top. The tarboosh and the modern fez, which is similar, owe much of their development and popularity to the Ottoman era.[2][3]

In 1925, the fez was banned in Turkey by the President, Mustafa Kemal Atatürk.[4] Since 1925, the fez is not a part of Turkish men's clothing.
