Hi
What is the true name of Graham's cap? I know it's called an "Adventurer's Cap" but, what is the cap/hat style's actual name, because I've seen the cap in movies that have a medieval setting such as Robin Hood and I've been wondering what the hat is really called so I can find some info on it and when exactly it was worn.
I don't know. You might try asking the folks at the armour archive, if you can provide a picture. :)

Isn't it called a beret?
I don't think so. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beret) :P
I've heard it referred to as a medieval ranger's hat, or even hunter's hat in other sources.

I was confusing it with that other hat that people in the military wear, the one that doesn't have a visor. What do you call that hat?
I don't know what it's called..a trincone?? ??? -Beats me..
Ya did a bit more research into it, and most places I checked called the hat that Graham and Robin Hood wear, a "Hunter's Hat".
Any particular historical reason mention or was it just a cool name? :)
some call them cavaliers. but robin hood hat/hunters hat is what the street name was in 1500
