About

The Newsboy cap - also known as a Paperboy Cap, Newsie Cap or Bakerboy - is thus named because they were first worn in the late 1800s and early 1900s largely by newspaper sellers.  These styles have enjoyed an enduring popularity with people from all walks of life over the following decades.  The wide choice of styles and warm but breathable colourful patterned fabrics make these a versatile and highly wearable all season staple.

Measuring:

Place the string or tape around your head above your ear and across the mid forehead, completely circling your head. Hold the tape firmly, but not too tightly. Measure your head exactly where you want the hat to sit. Measure in centimetres. If your measurement falls between sizes, round up to the nearest size. It may help to either do this in the mirror or have someone to help for accuracy. We also offer a professional measuring service at the SWAINE London Burlington Arcade store.

        Wool Cap Care:

        This is a wool product and thus only care instructions for the treatment of wool should be followed. We recommend that you store your cap somewhere dry placed peak side down. For longer periods of storage, we recommend keeping your wool cap in a hat box including some form of moth-repellent.

For more advanced cleaning needs we recommend dry-cleaning only or contacting your hatters for more in-depth advice and refurbishment services.
