Btw my father and my late grandfather wear this topi alot. I would love to have one.
All my family members wear this topi in Karachi..
This cap is very common in my experience at least in rural areas but without feathers.
These hats (without feathers) have already become an integral part of our culture. You can literally see people wearing them everywhere!
Brilliant post, saved me the trouble. Good elaboration, thank you.Those are Chitrali Pakols or as they are more commonly known, Chitrali Topis. Pretty much all our northern regions have their own specific style/version of the Pakol. The Chitrali Pakol (the most seen outside of the north) is more loose, with the folds not as tightly wound and with some space left in between them and the top. The Bheshami Pakol is more tightly wound with no space between the fold and the top and is smaller and tighter. The Swati Pakol has fashionable pleats all around the folded rim. The Gilgiti Pakol traditionally comes with a feather. There are many other variations as well; some have looser tops with tighter folded rims, some have tight tops, some have tops that don't fall outside the folded rim then some which do, some have thinner folded rims, etc., etc. You need a trained eye to spot which is which
