A raspberry-colored hat bearing the letters NY is, we admit, not an exercise in discretion. We find this rather refreshing.

Our Motion NY cap begins with 10 oz. American-milled cotton canvas and a white felt appliqué, then concerns itself with the things that actually make a cap pleasant to own: an unstructured crown, a soft and crushable brim, and natural horsehair backing.

The leather adjustment strap comes from S.B. Foot and fastens with a nickel buckle. All perfectly sensible details, even if the color has decided to be sociable.

Wear it wherever you please. We refuse to appoint ourselves the police of suitable hat colors.
