Snapback Hats

Hats Unlimited carries a broad suite of snapback hats from world-famous brands with great form and design traditions. The advantage of investing in a snapback cap over many other hats is that snapbacks are adjustable and provide a great fit for all.


What Is a Snapback Hat?

The snapback hat — a cap that gets its name from the adjustable strap in the back that snaps together — is just one of many types of baseball hats. 

The flat-brimmed snapback hat originated in baseball's early days and gained popularity during the 1990s. The first baseball teams did not wear the caps we associate with the baseball uniform today — instead, they wore straw hats. 

That changed in 1858 when the Brooklyn Excelsiors sported hats featuring a short, flat brim and rounded crown. Previously referred to as the Brooklyn-style cap, the snapback is thought to be the prototype of all modern-day ball caps. 


Key features of the classic snapback hat style include:

  • The fit: How you wear a snapback hat can vary based on the style you want to achieve. These caps are typically worn backward, forward or slightly angled to one side. 
  • Front panels: While modern-day snapbacks feature a 6-panel design, the first New-Era caps had an 8-panel design. The front panel on a snapback hat is usually structured or on the stiffer side, allowing for a more pronounced style. 
  • The brim: Conventional snapback hats flaunt a flat, wide brim. This design contrasts the dad hat style — a cap with a similar design — which has a pre-shaped, round brim. 
  • Adjustable strap: The closure on the back of a snapback hat is its defining characteristic. These plastic closures are adjusted by snapping the back buttons, making the snapback a one-size-fits-all cap. The adjustable strap makes the snapback cap distinct from other hats — for instance, fitted hats have no closure at all, while dad hats typically have a fabric fastener or metallic closure. 
  • Styles: Both women's and men's snapback hats are available in a wide range of designs, patterns and colors. Choose a lively design or a solid-colored cap to complement your favorite outfit or aesthetic.
