CAPtains log..

Caps from the catalog and a little about why we love them.

This time it's the Cloche Caps, which come in three colours, Brick, Navy & Slate-Grey.

The Cloche caps are a twist on the classic felt cloche hat, but with a cap twist. Cloche hats are the style from the 1920s and 30s which has that distinct rounded curved crown shape, and as a hat normally has a short brim.

Which bit's the crown? Which is the peak? And a little bit more about them..

I know, this is the raw basics of a cap. BUT you would be surprised how many folk I have come across who aren't quite sure straight away or just don't know. I think that's understandable if it's something you don't talk about each day! So if you've wanted to ask or talk about a custom shape.. without awkwardly asking, then this one's for you.

For starters, the crown is the part of the cap that is the main bit of the cap, that goes over the head and the peak is the name for the flat bit at the front.

A brim is also the name for the edge or flat bit that goes all the way around a hat and would change a cap into a hat. The hard insert that goes into a cap peak is also called a peak knife.

Picking which cap size to order without trying it on can get a little tricky, so if you need a little guidance then read on.

This is advice for picking the size AFTER you've measured your head. For sizing info on where to start & measure then see the sizing page on how to get your head-size.

Basic caps come in 10 colours so it can be hard to pick just one!

So if you can't choose which colour, then the basicbundle discount has got your back. Buy two colours at once & get 10% off BOTH caps.

So instead of £35 per cap, each cap is £31.50. Just add them both to the cart & it will automatically discount them both for you.
