Newsboy caps
Newsboy Caps – The Ultimate Stylish Accessory
Newsboy caps are distinguished by their volume and rounded silhouette. Their rounded crown, composed of eight triangular fabric panels joined by a central button, is paired with a small, short, elegant visor. Sometimes, decorative ribbons or cords enhance the style.
The term "gavroche" comes from the newspaper vendors of the early 20th century, who made this headgear iconic. Also known as "baker boy caps," they were popular with many trades, from bakers to artisans, combining practicality and style. Today, they are a must-have accessory, revisited in a variety of materials and cuts.
The Hatteras – an iconic model
Among newsboy caps, the Stetson Hatteras is a benchmark. A symbol of American heritage, it features a slightly rounded silhouette and a flat design of timeless elegance. Available in a variety of colors and materials, the Hatteras appeals to both men and women looking for a bold style.

-
Summer: Linen and cotton offer freshness and breathability, with natural sun protection. For a more sophisticated look, opt for silk or straw styles.

Winter: Wool, leather, felt, or corduroy versions provide warmth and comfort. Lined models provide extra softness on cold days.
