Story
The cap not only has the ability to warm in cold weather, but is also an accessory that is able to set the style of the image and can make it more expressive and stylish. Separate attention in this regard deserve the current models of caps with a visor this year.
The cap with a visor originates in ancient Egypt and sneaks through the Middle Ages, where the element similar to the modern visor was actively used in headdresses of the pharaohs and knights. But many designers refuse to “dig” so deeply, joining the general opinion that the cap with a visor originates in the 19th century, during times of war. Military uniforms in many countries included all sorts of berets, which later transformed into modern modifications of various caps with visors.
For example, the popular stylish knitted hat with a visor "Jeep cap" came to us from military uniforms for US troops. And the Russian military presented the once popular hats and caps to the world.
It is believed that it was in the French troops, in 1890, that the visor appeared as an immediate element of the headdress. At that time, such a military hat was called "kepe", which, you see, has consonance with the modern type of headdress, where it actively uses a visor - a cap.
Later, caps with a rounded soft crown, with a flat bottom and a rather high bandage were introduced into the form for the military of other countries.
The officers' caps had a small lacquered visor. A little later, the caps became intensively used in the form for gymnasium students.
For a long time, these hats were actively used in the form of America’s blue-collar workers - welders and all sorts of mechanics. In this case, the visor had extremely practical properties - it protected from bright light or unwanted work flares from getting into the eyes.
Gradually, these caps with a visor have changed and today have entered not only the everyday men's fashion, but also women's. In addition, even classic carts in a variety of interpretations have become often used at fashion shows.
To date, a hat with a visor is a fashionable and practical accessory.
Features
Caps with a visor have their own exceptional features.
First of all, the visor has not only an aesthetic purpose, which helps it to make the image more stylish and spectacular, but also practical. A cap with a visor will be the best option for a sunny day, when the sun blinds the eyes, or on a wet rainy day - the visor perfectly protects the face from bright light and unpleasant precipitation. In addition, the visor perfectly protects against wind and dust.
Currently, designers have a special interest in caps with a visor. But, unfortunately, in many models the visor loses its practical properties, becoming an exclusively decorative element.
A large assortment of models provided will allow women to choose the model that will firmly enter their ubiquitous everyday life and brighten up an individual image. In the modern world of fashion, the visor is made by famous brands in different forms and often affects the shape of the cap. There are models even with a heart-shaped and diamond-shaped visor, which will surely appeal to girls of creative nature.
Models
Many famous fashion houses and designers of major brands annually review their past collections of hats, each year presenting something new and interesting to us.
For example, we have already mentioned the famous, at the same time stylish and practical model called "Jeep cap". Its modern models are an actual knitted cap with a small neat visor. This model is considered a classic and literally does not go out of fashion from season to season due to its interesting minimalist form and ease of wearing. This model is a "unisex" model.
HClassic caps and baseball caps, which, due to their open form, are perfect for the summer season, also lose their relevance. They came to us from American baseball. Modern modifications of simple models stun the imagination of many customers. In addition, from now on, caps and baseball caps stylists successfully combine not only with a sporty style, but also elegant and solemn - fashion has advanced greatly, opening up horizons for new experiments.
Extremely curious models with ears that perfectly protect their owners from the autumn cold. Not so long ago, caps and baseball caps appeared, in which the production actively use natural materials: fur and leather.
Separate attention is deserved by the so-called "Snepbacks" - these are caps and baseball caps with a straight peak. They look very stylish and spectacular, and the direct shape of the visor goes to many, which is important. This headdress is a favorite accessory and a distinctive feature of the style of rappers and hip-hop lovers of culture.
But for lovers of active winter sports, the most practical model, perhaps, will be the “balacalva” with a visor. This model of caps warms the head, face and neck at the same time, preventing frostbite and discomfort during sports. Visor perfectly protects from prickly snow flying into the eyes.
Another practical winter model is a hat with a visor. At the same time, the ears can be on the valves, which is very convenient - they can be unfastened and fastened, depending on the circumstances.
Recently, the series "Sherlock" with the famous British actor Benedict Cumberbetch spawned fashion for a cap with two peaks, which has the long name "deer hunter hat". This original elegant model was invented in England and was intended, as the name implies, for hunting.
Many brands for the cold season have completed this model with eyelets on the strings.
Material
What only materials are not used when making caps with peaks!
For example, if we are talking about knitted hats, then in their manufacture yarn made of pure wool or with the addition of synthetic materials is used.
Tweed caps are classics of the genre and are unlikely to ever go out of style.
Genuine leather is often used in the manufacture of such types of caps as a cap, cap, and even a baseball cap. Many types of caps are sewn from denim. In cold countries there are fans of fur hats with a visor. Lightweight models of caps with visors are often made of dense knitwear or velvet.
What to wear?
When selecting a hat, you must take into account the features of your appearance and your image. Each type of hat has its own clothes and its own style.
In fact, a hat with a visor is an extremely versatile option, but due to the diversity of models of such hats, confusion may arise. For example, you should not try to combine classic baseball caps and caps with feminine dresses. In this case, it is reasonable to pay attention to such a model as a classic cap or with a visor.
With jeans and half-sports trousers, all models of these caps will suit.
And fur models will be perfectly combined with down jackets and a classic coat, as well as a park. Knitted hats with a visor will look interesting with a cardigan, and leather models with a denim or leather jacket.
Images
A leather cap with a classic look can drastically change any look.It is absolutely not necessary to combine it only with the style of "military", you can try to create with it a bright and quite elegant, feminine image. For this, it is worth adding an image of a double-breasted black lightweight coat worn over a bright or spectacular feminine dress. Pay attention to the accessories - they must match the style to the headdress. In this case, it would be nice to complement the image with high leather boots and a voluminous clutch to match them and the dress.
A stylized suede peaked cap with a voluminous visor will always look stylish and fashionable. A spectacular image with her participation can be created in a bow with a fluffy faux fur coat of a dark shade and light jeans on a high waist. Shoes should choose a neutral brown shade on a steady heel, and from accessories to pick up a small clutch to match the cap on a long strap. The result is an elegant image of urban style, where you can go on a fun walk with friends or a business meeting.
