Spanish Montera HatA Montera hat is traditionally worn by many males and females in the folk costumes of Spain. The Montera is also the beautiful and genuine Spanish matador's or toreador hat. The Montera hat is used by bullfighters and was introduced to the ritual event in 1835 by Francisco ‘Paquiro’ Montes as accompaniment to the 'traje de luces', or ‘suit of lights’. The Montera is covered in astrakhan fur with an inner lining of velvet. The image of a saint is sometimes printed on the lining as a talisman of good luck. WORLDWIDE SHIPPING INCLUDED          |
