Peculiarities

The main difference between this headgear and the usual baseball cap is not only the shape of the visor, but also the slightly lowered back part. - if you look at such a cap from the side, you will notice that the back of the head is at a slight slope, which ensures comfortable wearing and a more secure fit on the head. This model has a special name - snapback. Snapbacks first appeared in the United States in the early 1950s in baseball uniforms, thanks to New Era, the world's largest baseball cap manufacturer.

The iconic model was named 59 fifty and quickly fell in love with players, and closer to the seventies, when snapbacks became available to the general public, sports fans added an accessory to their wardrobe. In the early nineties, snapback took over street fashion. and since then this accessory has become associated with representatives of hip-hop, graffiti and skate culture.

Models

Now you don't have to swing a baseball bat, take part in rap battles on the streets of New York, or risk bone integrity by skating on a skateboard in order to wear a snapback. Modern fashion expands the boundaries of familiar styles and encourages us to bold experiments, allowing you to easily fit a stylish headpiece into almost any look... You can find the most daring and stylish solutions in stores.

Snapbacks vary in style - classic ones consist of five, sewn together, wedges, which can converge in the central part, but can be connected in a different way, which gives the product a flatter look. You can also find three and eight-wedge models. Each piece is equipped with an adjustable clasp for a comfortable fit. The clasp can be made of fabric, leather or plastic, Velcro fasteners are very comfortable. Most caps are equipped with special holes - eyelets, which are framed with metal and perform a ventilation function.

Color and print

Regardless of what color you like, you can find a cap of absolutely any shade - from pastel pinks or blues to neon greens. The same goes for the desired print, modern designers offer both camouflage patterns and more feminine pieces with floral patterns.

Monophonic snapbacks, deliberately devoid of decor, look very laconic.

If this is your first cap, then you should give preference to the one-color model, it is easy to combine it with the existing clothes. You can often find caps with a visor that differs in color from the main part, which can also be sewn from materials of different colors.

Decor

The classic decor of the snapback is the emblem in the central part, most often it is the logo of a sports team or the name of the manufacturer's brand. Of course, the designers' imagination does not stop there - the caps are decorated with spikes, rhinestones, rivets and beads, special neon stripes that can glow in the dark or under ultraviolet light.

There are several services on the Internet that allow you to order an individualized model on which the desired name or any other inscription will be embroidered or printed.

You can decorate the snapback yourself with a thermal patch or badges. The decor of the visor plays an important role, it is decorated with stickers and inscriptions that look especially cocky when applied at the bottom. Models with a visor made of a material different from the main part, for example, metallized or covered with leather, look stylish.

How can you wear it?

The snapback can be worn with the visor forward or slightly turned to the side. This option will look great with loose or braided hair, or you can tie a ponytail and gently pull it through the space above the clasp. With short hair, the cap will look great too. It should be borne in mind that due to the shape of the visor, an accent is created on the face., so girls should pay close attention to makeup, especially tone.

A cap turned backwards looks playful and cocky. The snapback can be worn on its own or worn over a bandana or scarf. The visor can be adjusted slightly by raising or lowering its edges. It is very important to choose the correct size of the cap and adjust the fastener., since a cap that is too small can cause discomfort in the form of a headache and ruin the hairstyle, and too large it risks degrading the whole image.

What can you wear with?

Caps with a straight visor can be combined with both sportswear and casual options. In summer, a snapback will look great with shorts and oversized T-shirts or crop tops. Short flared skirts, complete with such a headdress, look especially stylish and flirty.

In addition to being a stylish accessory, the cap will also help protect hair from burnout., head from sunstroke, and eyes from the sun. Oversized sunglasses will add a spice to your outfit. In the evening, you can replace the T-shirt with a sweatshirt or classic shirt, complementing it with a bomber jacket made of thick or transparent fabric. Straight denim dresses or tight knitwear look great with a snapback.

In cool seasons, the cap can be worn in combination with a parka or a straight-cut coat. Such an ensemble will look especially good when paired with tight trousers and shoes on a platform or low run - ankle boots with wide low heels, sneakers or sneakers. A canvas or leather backpack with a laconic shape will ideally complement an urban look.

What is the price?

The average cost of caps with a wide visor is 700-900 rubles. The price varies from manufacturer to manufacturer and directly depends on the quality of materials, of which the product is made, as well as the abundance of decor - the simpler the cap, the cheaper it will cost and vice versa. An important role in this aspect is played by the brand name, the more famous it is, the more expensive the snapback will cost.

Stylish looks

  • To create a stylish everyday look, appropriate both in the daytime and in the evening, men can combine a cap with a wide, straight visor with a cropped leather jacket or parka, a classic white or other light-colored plain shirt, skinny trousers or jeans, and a large wristwatch. An excellent complement to the look will be a rectangular backpack made of leather or dense materials that keep their shape well.

  • Although it is much "safer" for girls to combine a snapback with shoes on a low run, with the right accents, a high heel looks appropriate. For an evening look, you can pick up a shirt dress by wearing a cropped leather jacket or leather jacket on top. A stylish clutch will perfectly complement the outfit.
