When we think of St. Patrick's day, we think of many things - shamrocks, leprauchans, traditional Irish music, a tall Guiness, corned beef & cabbage and of course wearing green for good luck. Although the true Irish holiday was traditionally a religious holiday that mandated pubs to be closed thorughout Ireland on St. Patrick's day, in recent years, this turned around significantly and is now a holiday filled with several days of festivals, parades, concerts and fireworks. Residents and visitors of New York City celebrate the holiday with a St. Patrick's Day parade, while in Chicago the holiday is celebrated by dying the Chicago River green with a green vegetable dye.
At hats.com, we are paying homage to the holiday with a limited number of Kelly green wool felt derby hats. The Kelly is made in the USA and only $29.99! So top your green ensemble off in style before you head to the Windy City to witness the green river or the Big Apple for the parade.
May you always walk in sunshine. May you never want for more. May Irish angels rest their wings right beside your door.
