We're Not Cappin' When We Say These Are The Best Men's Hats
Since we got the obligatory questionable pun about "no cap" out of the way in the headline for this article, let's get straight into why headwear is a wardrobe staple.
The history of hats is thought to go back as far as 3,200 BC and since that time they continue to be used as protection from the weather. From baseball players to dads on holiday, spring and summer are the times when everyone starts reaching over to their cap collection more regularly while fall and winter call for the fluffy knitted beanies to come out.
As with any accessory, the right piece of headwear can either make or break your outfit. You can prove you are a streetwear OG with a Supreme 5 panel, pairing a baseball cap with formal wares can tip the scale more towards casual than smart, and a colorful beanie can bring a pop of color to dull winter days.
Bringing together some of the best men's hats on the market, from the traditional baseball cap styles to fluffy shearling options, check out our favorite hats below.

Polo Ralph Lauren Corduroy Baseball Cap
An ode to its preppy origins, the velvety green texture and multicolored polo player emblem make for a quasi-nostalgic headwear moment you'll appreciate atop of just about any look.
Burberry Denim Bucket Hat
Burberry's bucket had made of an embroidered jeans material falls perfectly in line with the season's double, triple – hell, even quadruple – denim trend.

There's something woodsy, burly about a flannel print that just goes with an autumnal, casual getup, don't you think?
Charles Jeffrey Loverboy Scarf Beanie
Tapping into a whole other – albeit, maybe woodland creature-esque – moodboard, we have this eared scarf beanie. It's giving high fashion Mr Tumnus.
Gramicci Down Mountain Cap
Having a puffer jacket is one thing, but a puffer hat takes winter dressing to the next level. This hat, which is made by American outdoorwear brand Gramicci, features a durable nylon outer with down feather fill and a fleece lining.
Charles Jeffrey Loverboy Striped Ears Beanie
As is the case with much of Charles Jeffrey's hats, this beanie comes with sewn-on ears that poke out from the top.
Innenraum Helmet Cap
Their involvement in Junya Watanabe's SS25 collection will have put Berlin design studio Innenraum on the map in a new way – so, better catch their goods while you can.
Maison Michel Denim Beret
Apropos unconventional materials, we have yet another denim hat.
Kenzo Flower Wool Beret
And apropos of Berets, Kenzo's wool hat and its tasteful red blossom stitching brings a little bit of life into the cold, dark winter.

Take a walk on the wild side with this trapper hat. The headwear style ensures that all of your head (and some of your face) is cozied up in fluffy fabric.

Back to basics? AMI Paris' camel colored beanie is a tasteful, neutral evergreen that'll pair wonderfully with a matching scarf.
Burberry Shearling Corduroy Cap
Burberry turned this cap into a winter warmer through a fuzzy shearling lining that covers two flaps made to protect your ears. And if the sides of your face get too warm, the flaps can be buckled up to the top of the hat. A good match for that leather, wool or faux-fur jacket you just bought!
Stone Island Marina Beanie
Stone Island's hand-sprayed Marina beanie is of a finely ribbed wool-blend. It's faded tone lends it a nice, lived in quality, but its dense knit will keep your head snug and warm.
