The Tunisian chechia – also called chachia or chachiya – is an iconic headwear of the Mediterranean world and the national hat of Tunisia. A close cousin of the beret, it embodies elegance, cultural heritage, and refined craftsmanship.

In June 2018, it shone on the international stage when Tunisian fans proudly wore it during the Football World Cup, becoming a cultural and identity symbol in the colors of the national flag.

An ancestral artisanal know-how

The making of the chechia is considered a noble art that follows rigorous traditional principles. Each piece is the result of a long artisanal process:

• Wool spinning in Djerba or Gafsa.

• Knitting of kabbous hats by the Kabbasat experts of Ariana.

• Footsteps in the waters of the Medjerda at El Batan.

• Carding in El Alia, thanks to local thistles.

• Natural dye made in Zaghouan.

• Finishing and shaping carried out in Tunis.

Thus, even before reaching your hands, the chechia has traveled throughout Tunisia, reflecting the soul and heritage of the country.

How to wear a chechia:

• With a traditional Tunisian outfit for an authentic style.

• In a modern version , with a shirt or coat for a unique and Mediterranean look.

• As a cultural accessory during festivals, artistic events or national celebrations.

Care instructions:

• Store it in a dry place, lying flat.

• Avoid humidity and prolonged exposure to sunlight.

• Opt for gentle dry cleaning to keep its shape and color intact.
