What is the history behind a watch cap?

A knitted cap itself traces back to Ancient Rome and the Phrygian Cap. A more or less modern knitted cap was invented around 1500s in Monmouth. The watch cap is one of its variations, developed over time.

Leather pieces require gentle treatment. For cleaning headpieces and accessories don’t use soap, oils, abrasive cleaners, furniture polish, varnish or ammonia. For removing tough stains use a dry cleaning service.

Product details

Ruslan Baginskiy Leather Watch Cap is a defining piece, when it comes to outfit creating.

A watch cap roots in the middle of 1500s. The piece owes its name to sailors, who were wearing a knitted cap to stay warm while night watching. The waves brought a watch cap right to the 21st century. Nowadays it’s worn by land and by sea. It doesn’t necessarily have to be knitted anymore. The leather interpretation of a watch cap is equally warm, yet more experimental. Using it on a daily basis would be a smooth sailing.
