    Thank you. I've been eying some of the patchwork style newsboy caps for a while. None of them inspired me to purchase one. But this one caught my attention and I just had to buy it. The pattern varies from bold to subtle depending on the lighting.

    What Cap Are You Wearing Today?

    Mayser newsboy cap received from an ebay purchase. Its a lightweight wool with quilted lining. My hunch is that it'll go well with a lot of colors in my wardrobe.

    Ami-Charnel by Stew Angus - no longer?

    I believe that @GHT owns a couple of fur felt hats from gamble and Gunn. I'm really happy with the newsboy caps that I've purchased from them.

    Teardrop Workshop

    Thanks. I guess I've seen more teardrop shapes where the REAR crown height was significantly lower than the front. C shaped hats seem to have crowns where the front and rear heights are the same.
