Classic, casual and cool: 3 outfits with peaked caps for men

We see them in old films all the time: Men in the secret service, dressed stylishly and ‘completely’ inconspicuous as they lean on lampposts, reading a newspaper and yet able to see everything perfectly – especially the pretty prime suspect. The detective look can never be complete without one: peaked caps for men. But they can do a whole lot more! Stylight presents three looks.

Look 1: The gentleman

Choose a gray or dark blue suit, a white shirt and cognac colored or black leather shoes. The color coordinated peaked cap sits at an angle on your head, the dark sunglasses leave your eyes in shadow and the chain of your pocket watch shines from your jacket pocket.

Look 2: The artist

With dark blue or beige chinos, espadrilles and a light colored t shirt, your peaked cap is transformed into the perfect accessory for your free time. In this outfit you can go for a relaxed walk through town, it can invite you to take a lovely short stop in a café or you can make yourself comfortable with a book on a park bench. Here, the peaked cap should pick up on one of the colors of your pants or shirt, the shoes, too, should coordinate with the tone of the outfit. If you’re out and about at night, feel free to choose the peaked cap for men for a dash of color with a less than exciting outfit.

Look 3: The rebel

With this look, either fold up the legs of your jeans or wear it with 7/8 length jeans. The cut is loose and the pants look like they’ve been through the wars – which is exactly what you want in the used look. This is illustrated by the slightly frayed pockets and pant legs and artificially imposed rips and holes. Chucks are great on your feet and you should feel free to use them as a colorful accent. Your peaked cap, on the other hand, should be kept in dark colors. Tank tops and oversized shirts with wide necklines are great here and they can be printed too.

Another item which is just as timeless as peaked caps for men is a great watch. With a large analogue clock face and a black leather strap or metal strap, your outfit will be complete.

From classic to rebellious: peaked caps for men go with so many looks.
