Which Cap to Choose for Women or Men?
Often seen as a simple accessory, a cap should not be chosen lightly. By following our advice, you'll ensure that your cap lasts for years, becoming your best ally in everyday life and on your travels, all while stepping away from fast fashion!
Size is the second key factor, as a comfortable cap is one that fits well. Colette, the cap, features an adjustable strap at the back to fit all head sizes.
The attention to detail in its crafting is also essential, as it directly affects the product's durability, comfort, and the daily lives of the people who make it. Colette is made from upcycled denim or recycled cotton, using only already-produced resources to minimize its ecological impact. Cotton is particularly ideal for hot summer days, as it is both durable and breathable.
Much like our 24-hour Celestins bag, Colette is handmade by skilled and fairly compensated seamstresses, supporting a fair and respectful textile industry.
Style is of course the primary criterion. At Rivedroite, we’ve chosen to offer only caps with curved brims, as their timeless lines match both sportswear and urban styles effortlessly.
How to Wear Your Cap in Style?
Like the bum bag, the cap has made a strong comeback in recent years, thanks to the streetwear and sportswear trends endorsed by the fashion world. It’s now an essential accessory that adds a modern touch and a bit of sophistication to any look, even a classic one.
At Rivedroite, we favor a minimalist approach, opting for solid-colored models in neutral shades like raw denim, black, beige, camel, or khaki. Our Colette cap also features clean lines for that subtle "something extra" that makes all the difference.
For women, pairing the cap with high-waisted jeans, a white t-shirt, and a black or navy blazer, along with loose hair or a ponytail, creates a casual chic look, suitable for both the professional world and evenings with friends.
For men, a cap worn with a plain t-shirt and a denim jacket creates a bold streetwear vibe. For a more polished look, match the cap color with your suit, tweed jacket, or a warm wool winter coat.
Colette: The Ethical Cap Through and Through
In 2016, we created Rivedroite because we believed another model of production was possible. This commitment is reflected in each of our Colette caps, all carefully made in Portugal from textile industry overstock.
Choosing Colette means supporting new standards in fashion, supporting a non-disposable fashion model that:
- Values high-quality, resilient materials already available.
- Fairly compensates the skilled craftsmanship of those who make us feel good with elegant, reliable products.
Finally, we pay special attention to the simplicity of our designs and the timelessness of our colors to increase the versatility and longevity of each of our accessories. Colette caps are made to accompany you for almost your entire life, without you ever needing to be embarrassed by them.
