Caps
A line of caps with understated elegance: duckbill, Newsboy cap, or reimagined baseball, blending vintage heritage with modernity. Technical or natural fibers, they combine bold style with demanding comfort, in every season. An essential of the chic wardrobe, at the crossroads of style and functionality.
Cap: Mastering the Look
More than just an accessory, the cap defines a silhouette. It embodies a vision of style where elegance never compromises on comfort. Diverging from streetwear trends, our selection explores another realm: that of timeless chic.
Soft newsboy caps, flat caps with British accents, reimagined berets, or baseball models crafted with urban simplicity… Each shape expresses a personality. The cuts are sharp, the lines designed to flatter the head, with that extra touch of soul offered by a beautiful volume, a perfect fit, a well-drawn visor.
Here, the materials speak for themselves: virgin wools, cashmeres, washed linens, sturdy cottons, as well as water-repellent or thermoregulating technical fibers. Depending on the season, they protect from the sun or cold, allow the skin to breathe, and accompany daily life without ever constraining it.
Each model is born from a choice: that of discreet refinement, lasting elegance, a style that transcends trends. This collection embodies a taste for well-crafted essentials, a quest for balance between character and functionality.
Designed for those who appreciate precise details, it becomes a field of expression in its own right — whether it evokes the silhouettes of the old continent, the bohemian spirit, or modern elegance. A way to crown clear ideas.

What Materials for a Cap?
Just like hats, there are different material possibilities. The spring season sees the emergence of lighter and breathable materials, such as linen or breathable cotton. In winter, we opt more for a more covering, soft, and warm model in wool, tweed, or velvet. Some materials are timeless. This is the case with leather. Both chic and vintage, the leather cap is one of the timeless headgears whose waterproof and robust properties are appreciated daily. It pairs well with both trendy and more casual looks.
How to Care for My Cap?
The cap has the advantage of requiring less attention than a hat when it comes to maintenance. However, certain daily gestures are recommended to prolong the lifespan of this headgear.
Cleaning
In general, Sommières clay is an effective product for cleaning all types of fabric. Applied to a dry surface, it helps remove grease and sweat stains. To tackle stains on a wool model, you can also use steam or dry cleaners. For leather models, specialized products for this material are necessary for optimal maintenance.
How to Reshape and Store It?
Has it lost its original shape? You can easily reshape it using steam or simply stuffing it with tissue paper. As for storing your model, we recommend placing it in a closet, on a shelf, or on a coat rack. You can also store it carefully inside a flat cap box. In any case, choose a cool and dry place.
