What Béton Ciré is known for
Despite its name (French for 'waxed concrete'), this Paris brand - not a construction-materials company - makes docker hats, caps, beanies and scarves in France from organic, GOTS-certified fabrics, founded 2013.
Contrary to the concrete/mineral-finish product implied by its name, betonxcire.com is a French headwear brand - Beton Cire, founded in 2013 by Amelie Le Roux - that makes docker hats, caps, beanies, rain hats and sun hats, along with bandanas and scarves, rather than any waxed-concrete building material; the name plays on that material's aesthetic rather than describing what the brand actually sells. Products are made in France using organic materials, with the brand citing Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) certification and EU manufacturing compliance; its signature piece is the 'Miki Docker' hat. The range spans seasonal fabrics - wool, linen, hemp, cotton and denim, plus rain-resistant technical fabric. The brand ships internationally and lists physical stockists in several countries while operating primarily as an e-commerce business out of Paris.
