Hats & Caps

For 2025, hat trends are set to focus on two main trends: in summer, raffia hats and large models with flexible brims dominate, offering sun protection with a contemporary style. For winter, fluffy hats and trapper hats are in the spotlight, combining thermal comfort with modern design. At RAG Tailors, we follow these trends, adapting our collection with premium materials and quality finishes. Neutral and earthy tones continue to be popular, but there is also room for vibrant colors in seasonal models, allowing versatility for different occasions.

Choosing the right hat for professional occasions depends on the context and dress code. For formal corporate environments, felt hats in dark shades such as black or navy blue convey elegance and professionalism. In semi-casual settings, berets or mid-brimmed Panama hats strike a balance between sophistication and modernity. For professionals who work outdoors, RAG Tailors recommends models with additional UV protection and breathable materials. Fit is also crucial – a well-fitting hat should rest comfortably above the ears, without pressing on the forehead or slipping.

The best materials for everyday hats include high-quality cotton, linen and polyester, which offer a balance between comfort and durability. Cotton is breathable and ideal for moderate temperatures, while merino wool provides excellent thermal insulation in winter. For summer, raffia and natural straw stand out for their lightness and ventilation. At RAG Tailors, we carefully select premium materials that guarantee resistance to frequent use. Durability also depends on the treatments applied – hats with UV protection and water repellency stay in excellent condition for longer, even with constant exposure to the elements.

To keep your hats in top condition, we recommend regular cleaning with a soft brush to remove dust and surface dirt. Straw and raffia hats benefit from dry cleaning, while cotton hats can generally be hand washed with a mild detergent. For storage, use special stands or boxes that maintain their original shape – never store them stacked. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight to prevent discoloration. If damp, allow the hat to dry naturally at room temperature, away from heat sources. RAG Tailors hats include specific care instructions for each material, ensuring that our products last longer.

Absolutely! RAG Tailors offers a full range of customisation services for hats, including embroidery, printing and screen printing of company logos and corporate elements. This service is perfect for team uniforms, creating exclusive merchandising or offering distinctive corporate gifts. To request customisation, simply send an email with the references of the desired models and the images to be applied, and our team will prepare a detailed quote. The delivery time for customised hats varies between 10 and 15 working days, ensuring professional finishes that preserve the integrity of the original design while incorporating your company's visual identity.

For outdoor work, we recommend hats with a wide brim of at least 7.5 cm that effectively protect the face, ears and neck. Models made from UPF 50+ certified fabrics block more than 98% of harmful UV rays, making them ideal for prolonged exposure to the sun. Safari or legionnaire style hats with additional protection for the nape of the neck offer superior coverage. RAG Tailors develops models specifically for outdoor professionals, combining lightweight, breathable materials with advanced sun protection technologies. Additional features such as adjustable straps, drawstrings and quick-drying fabrics ensure comfort and functionality throughout the workday, even in challenging weather conditions.

A top-quality hat has even stitching and impeccable finishing, with no loose threads or irregularities. Examine the main material – it should have a consistent texture, adequate density and uniform color. The inner lining, usually made of high-quality satin or cotton, should be well-fitted and comfortable against the skin. At RAG Tailors, we prioritize sweatbands made of absorbent and hypoallergenic materials, as well as precise adjustment systems. Also check for adequate flexibility of the brim and the structure of the crown, which should maintain its shape when handled. Other indicators of quality include detailed labels with material composition and specific care instructions.
