But what types of caps are there? Let’s take a journey through our different cap styles and find out which one suits your personal style best. Welcome to our little cap world tour!

Our Classic: The Snapback Cap

Soulbuddy started with Snapback Caps. Our first designs were Snapback Caps featuring the unique Soulbuddy logo on a vegan leather patch at the front. Why did we choose this style? Simple: the Snapback Cap is a timeless classic. We believe it looks great on everyone and is especially adorable on kids.

But where does the Snapback Cap originate, and what makes this style so special? The term "Snapback" refers to the adjustable closure at the back of the cap. Thanks to this snap closure, the cap fits perfectly on any head size.

The Snapback Cap has its roots in 1990s hip-hop culture. Rappers and other musicians made this cap style a trend. When Will Smith wore a Snapback Cap in the TV show The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, it became a must-have for teenagers worldwide. The Snapback trend never really faded, but it regained huge popularity in the 2010s, especially among musicians like Tyga and Chris Brown, who even dedicated a song to it in 2011 called "Snapbacks Back."

The Snapback Cap is typically recognized as a 6-panel cap with a firm structure. The six fabric panels create a round shape, and the cap’s stiff material helps it maintain its structure. The flat visor gives it a casual look, making it ideal for streetwear outfits. Our Snapbacks come in various colors and designs, available in four sizes: Adult, Kids L, Kids M, and Kids S for our smallest Soulbuddies. The baby-sized Snapbacks (Kids S) feature a soft elastic band at the back for extra comfort.

If you're looking for kids snapback caps, our collection offers a variety of trendy and comfortable options.

Classic, Breathable, and Stylish: The Trucker Cap

Another answer to the question, "What types of caps are there?" is the Trucker Cap.

If you're after a cool and laid-back look, the Trucker Cap is the perfect choice. Originally worn by farmers and truck drivers in the USA during the 1960s, these caps were handed out as promotional gifts. They quickly became popular because of their practical design, featuring a mesh back for better ventilation during hard work.

Over time, the Trucker Cap evolved from a workwear essential to a fashion statement. By the early 2000s, celebrities, musicians, and skateboarders had embraced the Trucker Cap, making it a must-have accessory. Today, this cap symbolizes urban style, relaxation, and individuality.

The mesh panels at the back ensures optimal airflow, making it a great choice for warm weather. The curved visor provides sun protection while maintaining a sporty, relaxed look. Whether you're skateboarding, heading to a festival, or just hanging out with friends, a Trucker Cap completes your outfit.

At Soulbuddy, we offer Trucker Caps in sizes from Kids S to Adult, ensuring that even the youngest Soulbuddies can rock a stylish look. If you're looking for matching hats for family, our Trucker Caps are available in coordinating styles so the whole family can match effortlessly.

The Evergreen: Dad Hats

A Dad Hat is a timeless classic and a must-have in every wardrobe. But what sets it apart from a regular baseball cap?

Baseball caps gained popularity in the 1950s, but it was American college students who gave them a unique twist. They washed their caps in dishwashers to achieve a worn-out, relaxed look and removed the front reinforcement to make them more comfortable. Over time, these softer caps became a signature look for American dads, hence the name "Dad Hat."

At first glance, Dad Hats resemble baseball caps with their curved brim, but the key difference is that Dad Hats lack a stiff front panel, making them extra comfortable. They naturally adapt to the wearer’s head shape over time.

Currently, Dad Hats are making a huge comeback in the fashion world. Their unstructured, relaxed fit makes them the perfect accessory for casual, everyday outfits. At Soulbuddy, our Dad Hats are available in Adult, Kids L, Kids M, and Kids S, so you can twin with your little one in a matching daddy-daughter outfit or father and son matching caps!

Caps for the Active Ones: The Sports Cap

When designing our Sports Cap, we wanted a cap that looked stylish, fit perfectly, and could be worn for any sport – even water activities! We combined the look of a baseball cap with lightweight, breathable, and quick-drying materials. The result? The perfect Sports Cap.

If you're searching for a cap that supports your workouts, this one’s for you. The moisture-wicking fabric keeps you cool and dry, while laser-cut ventilation holes enhance breathability. The curved visor shields your eyes from bright sunlight, helping you stay focused. The fit is deeper than our Dad Hats, ensuring it stays in place during intense activities.

Our Sports Caps are available in Adult, Kids L, and Kids M sizes, making them a great option for parents and kids who love to stay active together. Looking for a Father's Day gift for a sporty dad? A Sports Cap is a thoughtful and practical choice!

Our Special: The Performance Cap

The Performance Cap is a unique design that combines elements of our classic Snapback Caps with the breathability of our Sports Caps. Featuring a structured Snapback shape with a partially curved visor, it offers the best of both worlds.

Perfect for fans of the Snapback style who lead an active lifestyle, this cap is ideal for beach days, sports, or just everyday wear. Available in four sizes – Adult, Kids L, Kids M, and Kids S – it's easy to find the perfect fit.
