Newsboy cap

Hey kiddo,

Have you ever seen those cool hats that some people wear that kind of look like they belong in an old movie? Well, one of those hats is called a newsboy cap!

It's called a newsboy cap because it was originally worn by boys who worked for newspapers - they would deliver newspapers on the street. Nowadays, anyone can wear a newsboy cap to look cool!

It's made of soft material like wool or cotton and has a round, flat top with a little button on it. The brim at the front of the cap is curved, and the sides come down a bit lower than the top. This style of cap is also sometimes called a "baker boy" cap because bakers would wear them while working in a bakery.

They come in lots of different colors and patterns, so you can choose one that matches your favorite outfit. They're perfect for keeping your head warm in the winter or just looking stylish, so why not give one a try?
