Caps with Tailoring
Who doesn't love a good ball cap? Here's an inspiration album full of ball caps worn with tailoring.
Honestly, this is easy. This album is sort of a successor to my previous album on sneakers with tailoring, but it's so much easier to pull off, it doesn't really even need a write up. Three simple approaches:
- Build a casual outfit and throw on a jacket
- Think of a sport jacket as something you wear for sport, feel casual in it, throw on the ball cap.
- Dress up, use the ball cap for some formality contrast, do that sort of high-low thing with intentionality.
Really, though, it's not hard. You don't need a guide, you need inspo.
So here it is, pure inspo. Enjoy.
You people really ought to follow Play Lee.

Drake's. Note that Drake's hats are really short. Good if you have a short head, I guess.
I've done this myself, once or twice. Hats from Ralph Lauren; Todd Snyder x New Era; my Alma Mater; and Alfargo's Marketplace. It's better to get your school, your favorite sports team, or a club you're part of than get something boring and pointless.
