pilgrim hat
Colonial capotain costume
A pilgrim hat is the tall black hat with a wide brim and buckled band associated with the Pilgrims who settled Plymouth Colony in 1620.
The style appears constantly in American Thanksgiving imagery—on decorations, children's costumes, and greeting cards—though the historical accuracy of this iconic depiction is questionable.
