A little story about Flat caps, Paperboy caps
Gubbkeps (Swedish name), also called Flat cap in English, has its origins far back in time. One can find information as far back as the 15th century in northern England but was then called "Bonnet" and the term was changed in the 18th century to "Cap". In 1571, the English Parliament decided that all men over the age of 6 were forced to wear a cap of domestic wool blend to stimulate the wool industry. If you were then approached by the police, you were forced to pay a fine if you did not wear any kind of wool cap. Maybe we at Capsaints do not really go that far, but we like the idea.
