Love Stay Salty? Check out our full dad cap collection.
Stay Salty is a relaxed, unstructured mid-profile dad cap — it sits softly on your head rather than holding a rigid shape, which means it moulds to you rather than fighting you. The petite brim (a Cap Society signature) is shorter than your standard cap brim, making it more flattering across a range of face shapes and much easier to wear with sunnies.
The adjustable back strap fits most head sizes up to 58cm — just click the brass clasp to your perfect fit. Style it pulled down casual or pushed back slightly for a more open look. Throw it over beach waves, a messy bun, a low pony, or just your everyday hair — it works for all of it. Pairs beautifully with a bikini and linen shorts, an oversized tee, or a simple sundress.
Made from premium 100% washed cotton — pre-washed to give you that soft, lived-in texture you'd normally have to earn over months of wear. The fabric is lightweight, breathable, and genuinely comfortable all day long. The adjustable back strap features a sleek brass clasp that keeps things looking clean even when the vibe is completely relaxed.

The details.
What makes the Cap Society fit so special?
Our Cap Society signature fit is designed specifically for women’s heads — with a flattering mid-profile shape that sits comfortably (not too high or too low), a petite brim for balance, and an adjustable brass buckle for a custom fit. These design choices make our cotton dad caps both stylish and easy to wear all day.
- 100% washed cotton
- Relaxed 6-panel cap
- Adjustable back strap
- Brass Buckle
- Up to 58cm circumference
What's the difference between washed and relaxed cotton?
Washed cotton has a softer, broken-in feel with a lightly textured look — perfect for a casual, lived-in vibe.
Relaxed cotton is smoother with a cleaner aesthetic and soft structure, ideal if you prefer a subtly elevated everyday look.
Both materials are lightweight, breathable, and designed for everyday wear.

How do I care for my 100% cotton cap?
Caring for your cap properly will help it keep its shape, colour and premium finish for years to come. Our caps are made from 100% cotton with a brass clasp, so following the correct care instructions is essential to maintain their fit and quality.
1. Rinse After Salt Water Exposure
If your cap comes into contact with salt water, always rinse it thoroughly with fresh cold water as soon as possible.
Salt residue can cause the brass buckle to corrode over time if it isn’t washed out properly. A quick rinse helps prevent long-term damage and keeps the hardware looking clean and polished.
2. Hand Wash Only (No Machine Washing)
When your cap needs a refresh:
- Gently hand wash with fresh cold water
- Use a light, mild detergent
- Avoid scrubbing too aggressively to maintain the fabric structure
Machine washing can distort the cap’s shape and weaken the cotton fibres, so hand washing is always recommended.
3. Air Dry the Right Way
To preserve the colour and structure:
- Air dry indoors or in a shady area
- Reshape the cap while damp to help maintain its fit
- Do not tumble dry
- Do not iron
Heat can shrink cotton fabric and damage both the cap structure and the brass clasp.
4. Avoid Direct Sunlight While Wet
Leaving your cap in direct sunlight while wet may cause fading over time.
Some people love the naturally sun-faded, vintage look — and if that’s your style, go for it. But if you’d like your cap to stay looking fresh and vibrant, always dry it out of direct sunlight.
Quick Care Summary
- Rinse with cold water after salt exposure
- Hand wash only with mild detergent
- Air dry in shade or indoors
- No tumble drying or ironing
- Avoid prolonged sun exposure while wet
By following these simple steps, your cotton cap will stay in mint condition — maintaining its fit, colour and premium finish wear after wear.
