What Are Caps?
Caps are peaked leisure headwear, typically baseball-style or sport-peaked designs worn for sun cover and casual yard dress. They are not safety helmets and must not be worn during riding.
In this category you will typically find:
- Baseball-style caps with front peaks
- Sport caps with brand logos and adjustable closures
- Leisure caps for yard work and travel
Caps vs Hats
Caps have a front peak and a crown without a full brim. Hats have a brim that circles the crown, including fedoras, wide-brim sun hats and field hats. Shop hats when you want full-brim sun cover or formal headwear.
Both caps and hats are leisure accessories. Neither replaces a safety helmet during riding.
Caps vs Riding Helmets
Caps are leisure wear for yard, travel and casual dress. Riding helmets are safety-certified head protection required during mounted work. Never wear a cap instead of a riding helmet when mounted or working around horses in a manner that requires head protection.
Caps are for ground dress only.

How to Choose a Cap
Start from the use: sun cover for yard work, travel dress or branded leisure wear. Check peak style, closure type and fabric notes on the listing, then confirm sizing before ordering.
Never substitute a cap for a riding helmet during mounted work or any activity requiring safety-certified head protection.
