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".
