SHAPE:
The 1929 BAKERBOY CAP is a casual cap with a firm peak that can be easily bent into shape and a soft round head 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. Our 1929 BAKERBOY CAP is a little slimmer than its counterpart, our 1920 NEWSBOY CAP.

Our 1929 BAKERBOY Check It On is in a classic yet very lively check. The black and gray wool yarn is loosened up by subtle rust-red stripes. Check it out.

This outer fabric is very robust at 470g and can be worn well in the cold season. The protective fabric from the MAGEE weaving mill gives the cap a good hold. MAGEE, one of the most traditional weaving mills in the world since 1866, wove the fabric according to old traditions.

Who hasn't seen the old black and white photographs from the turn of the century? Everyone wore a hat: newspaper boys, dock and steel workers, farmers, beggars, criminals, every trade. Only the 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. In the middle of the 20th century, the cap was rediscovered; free of prejudice and class, 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 it.
