The outcome was never really in doubt.
The Spy

The Frenchman's Beret is an unlockable headwear item for the Spy. It was modelled after the style of the stereotypical artist's beret, hence the two paint brushes on the left side. This item was released in the May 20, 2010 Patch under the second round of Contribute! content.

Trivia

  • Berets are worn by both men and women and usually associated with France although it is in fact rather specific only to the Pyrenees. It has also been occasionally a traditional or fashionable headgear in the Netherlands and Italy.
  • It appears that the article titled "Wearing Berets: Not on our Watch! How You Can Help..." in the magazine Hat-Wearing Man failed to deter the Spy from donning berets such as this one.
  • The paint-brushes are most likely a reference to the French painter stereotype.
  • This hat was submitted under the name of the "Bourgeois Beret" before Valve changed it to the "Frenchman's Beret".
