Leather caps have become an increasingly popular fashion accessory. Worn by men and women alike, they feature the same design as most other caps, allowing them to be worn over the head. Leather caps are unique, however, because they are made of genuine leather. While most caps are made of traditional textiles like cotton and polyester, leather caps are made of leather. Below are nine benefits of wearing a leather cap. Shape Retention Leather caps offer excellent shape retention. Even when worn on a daily basis for multiple consecutive months, a leather cap will still offer the same shape in which it was originally made. The same can’t be said about other caps. Cotton, polyester and other traditional textiles often succumb to deformation. If you wear a cap made of a traditional tile for long enough, it may lose its original shape. You can rest assured knowing, however, that a leather cap will retain its shape long after you purchase and wear it. Soft Texture It’s also worth mentioning that leather caps have a super-soft texture. Other caps typically feel scratchy, which can lead to discomfort over the course of a day. Leather, on the other hand, is a super-soft textile, making it a better choice for a cap. Whether you wear it for a few hours or multiple consecutive days, a leather cap won’t scratch or irritate your head. Natural Elasticity Thanks to leather’s natural elasticity, a leather cap will contour to comfortably fit your head. Leather is more elastic than other textiles in the construction of caps. As a result, a leather cap won’t fit, nor will...

Leather belts are worn with a variety of pants, trousers, dresses and other garments. As you may know, they are worn around the waist — typically through a series of multiple loops — to secure the garment to your body. With that said, a leather belt can also enhance your outfit by adding new colors and patterns. But if you’re going to accessorize your outfit with a leather belt, there are a few things you need to know. In this post, you’ll learn several things to look for when choosing a leather belt. Stick With a Cohesive Color for All Leather A good rule of thumb to follow is to choose a leather belt in the same color as the other leather garments, as well as accessories, with which you intend to wear it. What does this mean exactly? Assuming the only leather item you wear is a belt, you can choose a leather belt in any color. But if you’re going to wear a leather belt with leather shoes or a leather jacket, you should choose a belt in the same color as your shoes or jacket. Make Sure It Fits A leather belt isn’t going to offer much value unless it fits around your waist. After all, that’s the whole point of wearing a belt — to define your waistline while securing your pants or trousers in place. If you choose a leather belt that’s too small for your waist, you won’t be able to wear it; it’s just that simple. If you choose an oversized leather belt, on the other hand, it may look awkward when...

Leather capris have become a popular alternative to traditional women’s pants and trousers in recent years. With their shorter-than-average length, they are both comfortable and stylish. And because they are made of leather, they offer the same benefits as other leather garments. In this post, we’re going to take a closer look at leather capris. Whether you’re shopping for your first pair or 10th pair, the following guide will help you find the perfect leather capris. What are leather capris? As the name suggests, leather capris are women’s capris characterized by a leather construction. Capris themselves have been around for many decades. With that said, they didn’t gain mainstream attention until the 1950s. Around this time, more and more women traded in their full-length pants for cooler and more comfortable capris. It’s believed that the 1960s TV show “The Dick Van Dyke Show” helped popularize capris. One of the show’s main characters, played by actress Mary Tyler Moore, was often seen wearing capris. Because of the “The Dick Van Dyke Show’s” massive popularity, it introduced millions of Americans to capris, setting a new fashion trend. All capris, including leather capris, feature a shorter-than-average length. While traditional women’s pants typically extend to the ankles, capris only extend to the calves. Leather capris feature this same length but are characterized by a leather construction. Leather capris vs cropped leather pants Many people assume leather capris are the same as cropped leather pants. While similar, though, they aren’t necessarily the same. Both leather capris and cropped leather pants are shorter than traditional women’s pants. Leather capris, however, extend to the calves, whereas...
