Complete the Skater Look With a Skateboard Cap

A snapback cap is essential in any skater's wardrobe. When it comes to selecting your skate caps, you have plenty of options. All the major skating brands like Vans, Dickies, and Santa Cruz offer a wide range of stylish and comfortable caps. You can choose between different designs such as strapbacks, snapbacks, or flat peak caps. Caps also come with either 5 or 6 panels, which gives them a different look but doesn’t significantly affect how they feel when worn.

The name snapback originates from the way the cap fastens—there is a plastic strap at the back where you “snap” the little buttons into place. In contrast, strapbacks use a leather or poly strap instead of buttons, allowing you to tighten the cap to your preference. This design ensures that most caps are one size fits all.

Caps for the Skate Park

Having a cap is not just about style. Your snapback hat will shield you from the sun on bright days, allowing you to focus on your skating. However, remember that a hat is not a substitute for a helmet. When grinding and sliding, it is always recommended to wear a Skateboard Helmet for full head protection.
