Product Overview
Blue-and-white hickory stripes give this cap its unmistakable railroad character, but the crown construction is just as important to the look. The Rothco Hickory Stripe Engineer Cap uses a single piece of cotton fabric, loosely folded and pleated into the hatband, to create the distinctive shape associated with traditional railway headwear.
The heavyweight 100% cotton fabric gives the cap a substantial feel rather than the lighter construction of many casual hats. Its sturdy structure helps maintain the intended shape through wear, while the cotton construction provides comfort. That combination makes it well suited to customers who want the recognizable engineer-cap silhouette as well as the striped pattern.
A distinctive alternative to a baseball cap
The blue-and-white print and gathered crown work together to give this hat a vintage appearance. Pair it with denim or other casual clothing for a railroad-inspired look, or use it to complement a railway-themed outfit. Its appeal is straightforward: traditional styling with a substantial cotton construction, without turning a familiar piece of headwear into something overly technical.
