The corduroy baker boy cap is the version that the Peaky Blinders television series brought back into mainstream consciousness, but the style it references predates that revival by well over a century. The ridged corduroy surface, the full eight-panel crown, and the rigid forward-sitting brim are design elements that have been in continuous use in British headwear since the late Victorian era.

This version is made from 100% cotton corduroy with a quilted polyester lining that adds structure and warmth. Two clips on the visor allow the brim to sit at different angles, giving the wearer control over the degree of forward tilt that defines the character of the cap. Available in sizes S through XL for a wide range of fits.

The corduroy newsboy cap works with everything the classic wool newsboy works with, plus a few more contemporary contexts. Denim, cord trousers, and plain knit jumpers all sit naturally with it. The texture of the corduroy adds a layer of visual depth to an otherwise simple outfit without needing anything else to support it.
