A Smurf hat is a piece of clothing generally worn by all Smurfs. It is a standard woolen cap with the top part of it flopping forward (or in any preferred direction, as with Slouchy's hat), basically resembling a Phrygian cap. Male Smurfs generally wear Smurf hats because the top of their heads are bald. Female Smurfs tend to wear them simply to identify themselves as Smurfs. Most Smurfs wear white hats while Papa Smurf wears red, Grandpa Smurf wears yellow, and Sweepy Smurf wears black. While in the cartoons and the comic books Tailor Smurf is the one who makes Smurf hats, Papa Smurf is the one who makes them as Christmas presents every year in The Smurfs: A Christmas Carol, with each Smurf hat tailored specifically for its recipient.
