Felt or velvet hat (6)

I believe the answer is:

fedora

(Other definitions for fedora that I've seen before include "Brimmed hat with creased crown" , "Soft hat with band" , "Felt hat much loved by 1930s gangsters" , "Soft felt hat with a curled brim" , "Cover for head" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
