Product Overview
The Result Headwear Gatsby cap offers a sophisticated departure from standard uniform headwear, blending traditional French styling with modern comfort. Crafted from a mid-weight herringbone cotton, this cap provides a refined aesthetic suitable for customer-facing roles where a smart, heritage-inspired appearance is required. The subtle texture of the weave adds a layer of professionalism that standard flat-weave caps often lack.
Key Features
- Traditional French Gatsby Style: Delivers a classic, high-end look that elevates a standard work uniform.
- Elasticated Back: Ensures a secure and comfortable fit for various head sizes without the need for unsightly plastic adjusters.
- Fully Lined Interior: Enhances the structural integrity of the cap while providing a smooth, comfortable surface against the head.
- Herringbone Weave Detail: Provides a premium tactile finish and visual depth to the fabric.
Design & Performance
Constructed from 100% cotton in a sturdy herringbone weave, this cap is designed to maintain its shape through daily wear. The mid-weight nature of the fabric ensures it is substantial enough to feel durable while remaining breathable for indoor or outdoor use. The inclusion of a full internal lining is a mark of quality design, helping the cap sit correctly on the head and preventing the outer fabric from losing its form over time. The elasticated rear section is a practical addition, allowing for a flexible fit that remains comfortable during long shifts.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This Gatsby cap is an ideal candidate for custom branding. For a truly professional and traditional finish that complements the herringbone texture, we highly recommend embroidery. Our Telford-based team uses precision machinery to ensure logos and names are rendered with sharp detail and lasting durability. Alternatively, transfer printing can be used for bolder, flatter designs. Every customisation project is handled in-house by our expert team, who have been perfecting garment decoration since 1976.
Use Cases
The Gatsby cap is particularly well-suited for the hospitality sector, including front-of-house staff, baristas, and boutique hotel employees. It also serves as an excellent choice for retail environments or event teams looking to establish a distinct, vintage-inspired brand identity. Its unisex design makes it a versatile addition to any staff uniform kit.

Practical Advice
While this is a 'one size' item, the elasticated back provides significant flexibility. However, for those with particularly small or large head measurements, we suggest testing a single unit before committing to a full team rollout to ensure the fit meets your requirements. When pairing with other garments, the herringbone texture works best when contrasted with smooth fabrics to allow the cap to stand out as a signature piece.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity and the distinctive weave of this cap, it must be sponge cleaned only. Machine washing may cause the internal lining to shift or the outer cotton to shrink, resulting in a distorted shape that cannot be easily corrected.
Do not use bleach, as this will damage the cotton fibres and cause significant discolouration to both the fabric and any custom embroidery. Similarly, the cap should not be ironed, tumble dried, or dry cleaned. High heat from irons or dryers can compromise the elasticated back and the internal stiffeners in the peak. Allowing the cap to air dry naturally after a light sponge clean is the best way to ensure it remains a staple of your professional wardrobe for a long time.
