A shtreimel is a fur hat worn by many married haredi Jewish men, particularly (although not exclusively) members of Hasidic groups, on Shabbat and Jewish holidays and other festive occasions. In Jerusalem, the shtreimel is also worn by "Yerushalmi" Jews (non-Hasidim who belong to the original Ashkenazi community of Jerusalem, also known as Perushim). The shtreimel is generally worn only after marriage, except in some Yerushalmi communities, where boys wear it from the age of bar mitzvah.
According to Jewish law, one should have special garments to honor the Shabbat. Wearing a special, regal hat represents the “Shabbat crown,” which also corresponds to the “crown of Torah” since the Torah was given on Shabbat.
