History
The cap not only has the property of warming in cold weather, but is also an accessory that can set the style of the image and can make it more expressive and stylish. Special attention is paid to topical models of hats with a visor this year.
The cap with a visor originates in Ancient Egypt and makes its way through the Middle Ages, where an element similar to a modern visor was actively used in the headdresses of pharaohs and knights. But many designers refuse to "dig" so deeply, joining the general opinion that the cap with a visor originates in the 19th century, during the war. The military uniforms of many countries included all kinds of berets, which later transformed into modern modifications of various hats with visors.
For example, the popular stylish knitted hat with a visor "Jeep cap" came to us from military uniforms for US troops. And the Russian military gave the world once popular caps-caps.
It is believed that it was in the French troops, in 1890, that the visor appeared as a direct element of the headgear. At that time, such a military cap was called "cap", which, you see, has a consonance with the modern look of the headdress, where it actively uses a visor - a cap.
Later, caps with a rounded soft top, with a flat bottom and a fairly high patch were introduced into the uniform for the military of other countries.
At the same time, officer caps had a small lacquered visor. A little later, the cap was intensively used in uniform for high school students.
For a long time, such hats were actively used in the form of the “blue collar” of America - by welders and various kinds of mechanics.In this case, the visor had exclusively practical properties - it protected from bright light or unwanted work flaws in the eyes.
Gradually, these caps with a visor changed and today are included not only in everyday men's fashion, but also in women's fashion. In addition, even classic capes in various interpretations have often been used at fashion shows.
Today, a hat with a visor is a fashionable and practical accessory.

Material
What materials are not used when sewing hats with visors!
For example, if we are talking about knitted hats, then in their manufacture yarn is used from pure wool or with the addition of synthetic materials.
Tweed caps are a classic of the genre and are unlikely to ever go out of style.
And genuine leather is often used in the manufacture of such types of hats as a cap, a cap and even a baseball cap. Many types of hats are sewn from denim. In cold countries there are fans of fur hats with a visor. Lightweight models of caps with visors are often made of thick knitwear or velveteen.
What to wear?
When choosing a hat, you must take into account the features of your appearance and your image. Each type of hat has its own clothes and style.
In fact, a hat with a visor is an extremely versatile option, but confusion can arise due to the variety of models of such caps. So, for example, you should not try to combine classic baseball caps and caps with feminine dresses. In this case, it is reasonable to pay attention to such a model as a classic cap or beret with a visor.
With jeans and trousers of a semi-sports style, all models of these hats will fit.
And fur models will perfectly combine with down jackets and a classic coat, as well as a parka. Knitted hats with a visor will look interesting with a cardigan, and leather models with a denim or leather jacket.
The images
A leather cap with a visor of a classic look is able to radically change any image. It is absolutely not necessary to combine it only with the military style; you can try to create with it a bright and quite elegant, feminine image. To do this, complement the look with a double-breasted black lightweight coat, worn over a bright or spectacular feminine dress. Pay attention to the accessories - they should match the style of the headgear. In this case, it will be nice to complement the image with high leather boots and a voluminous clutch to match them and the dress.
A stylized cap made of suede with a visor will always look stylish and fashionable. An effective image with her participation can be created in a bow with a fluffy artificial fur coat of a dark shade and light jeans at a high waist. Shoes should be chosen in a neutral brown color with a steady heel, and from accessories, choose a small clutch in the tone of a cap on a long strap. You will get an elegant image of an urban style in which you can go on a fun walk with friends or a business meeting.
