Shout-out for B!Wear Newsboy Caps

[Vespizzare]

I usually hang out in the outerwear section dissecting leather jackets, etc.; but I like to wear a newsboy cap sometimes and I checked this forum for advice. B!Wear Caps were recommended (link below) and I was very satisfied. I would recommend emailing ahead to the owner, Brett, and arranging for a leather band for slightly extra. Also I would recommend ordering the next size up. I really dig these hats. They're the only ones I've come across that have the fuller, more authentic 1920's profile and they're quite reasonable too.

Here is the B!wear cap thread.

I would check on Johnny J's cap's for the 20's look.

I've always thought that b!wear has more of a beret look to their newsboy version. Probably because of the way the seams are positioned and tiny bill. However they do have a following.

How much do his wool caps cost? I see one cap that had a price of $50. I am not sure if that is for that fabric cap only or all the fabric caps.

I would add a cap to the cart to see the price of it. I checked and one was 35.00 dollars.

Thanks for this info. I have been looking for a vintage look bikers cap or even a truck drivers cap you see in the old movies. It is really hard to locate the real thing.

Maybe a dumb question but are these caps always worn snapped? I have seen these type of hats worn open but they do not have the snap like the one in the link. I sure would like to see a pic of a b!Wear Cap worn open. I am interested in one like the one in the link.

You can wear it any way you want.
I posted a link in my earlier reply to the B!wear
Thread. There are several pictures of the caps being worn

Ok I have my answer. All the hats I checked were $35+$8 shipping.

I lost weight and basically am getting a whole new wardrobe. I also got a cap from "The Hat People" in Oregon and they come without a snap for easier wearing "back." I like their material, sort of a Pendleton wool, but I like the B!Wear caps a lot better. And B!Wear is less expensive too.
