What is the history behind the newsboy cap? As a lot of modern pieces do, the newsboy cap rose in ranks of the social structure from the working-class. The rounder and puffier style appeared around the 1800s opposing the stiffer flat cap design, the silhouette then grew in popularity with the help of gangs in england, the working class of the industrial revolutionized new world across the Atlantic, and now the silhouette has been modernized half a century later, designed and manufactured by brero in east los angeles, california representing the working-class since 2018.
