Our 1920 NEWSBOY CAP Herdwig has a wonderful story, because it is made from undyed sheep's wool. The coloring is the result of the natural coloring of the wool. Only washed and woven, it still has its natural protection against rain and cold. Herdwick is a breed of sheep that is kept almost exclusively in the English Lake District. It is one of the many old British landraces that are particularly adapted to the harsh conditions of their region of origin.

This outer fabric is easy to wear in autumn, winter and also spring. The medium-weight fabric from the MARLING & EVANS weaving mill is stiffer and gives the cap a good stand. MARLING & EVANS, one of the most traditional weaving mills in England since 1782, wove the fabric for us. This company uses only the highest quality raw materials for its production, such as lamb and sheep wool, camel hair and pure cashmere. Generations of skill and knowledge are used at every level of production to achieve this quality.

Our 1920 NEWSBOY CAP is a variation of our BAKERBOY. It has 10% more volume in the head than the BAKERBOY. This means that the fabric falls more loosely and can be pushed to the side.

The 1920 NEWSBOY is a casual cap with a firm peak that can be easily bent into shape and a soft round head that is sewn from eight spikes. A button is sewn on at the top of the head for decoration. The outer fabric is pulled over the peak to the middle. The cap has a 2 cm wide bridge all around.

Who hasn't seen them, the old black and white photographs from the turn of the century. Everyone wore headgear: newspaper boys, dock and steel workers, farmers, beggars, criminals, every trade. Only noble men and women wore hats back then. The numerous variants of caps were intended for busy life, mostly for work, but also for sport. The name "Schieber" (pointed cap) goes back to the old Berlin term for foreman. This type of cap was also rediscovered, now free of prejudice and class, and it won over free spirits and artists. But it still carries a symbol within it. Because no one can deny that a cap wearer exudes an individuality that would be much less without one.
