Not a religion, but more of a specific culture -- that of the Ottoman Empire.

It originated (and, thus, it is named for) the city of Fez, Morocco in the 17th century. It is associated with the Ottoman Empire's Sultan Mahmud II, who began sweeping reforms with his military in 1826. He ordered his army and civilian officials to wear the new hat. He actually banned the wearing of turbans!

It was popular throughout the Middle East up until the beginning of the 1900s where it fell out of fashion and was looked upon as more of an exotic type hat.
