A Hat with a flat top and a slightly curved brim going all the way around the crown. It is similar to a Fedora and Trilby, but it is shorter with no pinched front. Pork pie hats are often associated with jazz, blues and ska musicians and fans.
Not to be confused with a Boater Hat, which has a flat, stiff brim and is often made of straw.
