Hats 101

One thing I’ve learned over the last few years since starting Aaron Hats is that a lot of people don’t know the very basics of hats. Most don’t know that there’s a difference between a hat and a cap and that the two terms are not interchangeable. So I thought I’d begin a series of posts explaining as much as I can about hats starting with the very basics.

First, the difference between hats and caps. Hats have a brim that goes all the way around the crown as shown in this picture:

A cap only has a bill or visor around the crown like a ball cap or an ivy cap as shown here:

So there’s your first class on Hats 101. Go out and spread your new wealth of information.
