newsboy cap

Rounded brimmed hat

A newsboy cap is a casual men's cap with a round, paneled crown and a small stiff brim in front, similar to a flat cap but fuller and puffier.

The name comes from the caps worn by newspaper sellers in the early twentieth century.

Also called a baker boy cap or gatsby cap.
