DOCTORAL TAMS FOR SALE – PREMIUM QUALITY ACADEMIC HEADWEAR
Welcome to Academic Hoods, your premier destination for doctoral tams crafted with elegance and tradition. Whether you're preparing for graduation or an academic ceremony, our PhD tams offer the highest level of quality, comfort, and prestige.
WHAT IS A DOCTORAL TAM?
A doctoral tam is a traditional piece of academic regalia worn by those who have earned a doctorate degree. Unlike mortarboards, which are more common for bachelor’s and master’s graduates, a PhD tam features a soft, velvet design with a gold or black tassel. The number of sides on a tam often varies, with 4-sided, 6-sided, and 8-sided tams being the most popular.
TYPES OF DOCTORAL TAMS
At Academic Hoods, we offer a variety of doctoral tams to suit your needs:
✅ 4-SIDED DOCTORAL TAM – A classic choice, often selected by those who prefer a more structured look.
✅ 6-SIDED DOCTORAL TAM – A popular option that balances tradition with a distinguished academic appearance.
✅ 8-SIDED DOCTORAL TAM – The most prestigious and widely chosen PhD tam, offering a refined and sophisticated look.
Each doctoral tam in our collection is made from high-quality velvet and includes a choice of gold bullion or silky tassels to match your university's academic dress requirements.
HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT DOCTORAL TAM
Selecting the right PhD tam depends on a few factors:
-
University Requirements: Some universities have specific guidelines regarding the number of sides on a tam or the color of the tassel.
-
Comfort & Fit: Our doctoral tams come in adjustable sizes to ensure a perfect fit for every graduate.
-
Personal Preference: If you prefer a more traditional look, go for a 4-sided tam, but if you want a distinguished, professional appearance, an 8-sided doctoral tam is an excellent choice.
