Element Caps / Hats

Snapbacks & strapback caps for skating are among the most popular accessories for skaters and are a common sight in the skate park and at street spots.

Snapback caps are characterized mainly by their closure. By using a plastic strap with small press studs, the snapback closure can be easily fastened at the back of the head and individually adjusted to your head size.

Strapbacks, on the other hand, can be closed with an adjustable strap. This is usually a rubber or plastic strap, which can be fixed by a simple closure and according to your head circumference.

5-panel caps

5-panel caps are flat-cut caps that are inspired by cycling in their casual and understated appearance, but have also found their place in skateboarding. The pattern of the five-panel cap combines two rounded side pieces and two narrow head pieces with a one-piece front section over the shield.

6-panel caps & dad caps

Flat 6-panel caps are reminiscent of the classic caps of polo teams and, just like 5-panel caps, can be perfectly adapted to your head circumference with an adjustable closure.

Dad hats are a special form of 6-panel caps and have a curved visor as a design feature. The name comes from the fact that this used to be the classic form of a cap, which probably every father has worn at some point.

Trucker caps - the airy classic

Characteristic for trucker caps are the air-permeable backs. A fine mesh provides fresh air on your head but at the same time creates enough tension to keep your cap in shape and position while skating. The mostly white front with printed motifs or logos is also a typical feature of these caps. Originally, these caps were often worn by truckers, but nowadays the trucker cap suits just about everyone.

Flex caps - they always fit

Flex caps fit perfectly to the shape of your head due to  incorporated and stretchable elastic. This also applies to the stretch. The fit is reminiscent of a typical dad cap. Flex caps feel at home especially when skating and in various subcultures.
