The words ​“baseball cap” and ​“trucker hat” are often used as synonyms. People use either term as a catch-all to refer to any sort of front-brim cap. In the purest, most historical sense, trucker hats were a specific type of baseball hat with the following features: 

1. Breathable mesh as the back half of the hat. This is to help keep the wearer’s head cool in hot weather, which is a major benefit when driving a truck.
2. Foam as the main material. Foam hats were far cheaper to make than cotton.
3. Graphics on the front. Often, these promoted a company. Other times, they could be funny or silly.

Baseball caps can also have mesh, foam construction, or promotional or funny graphics. Trucker hats don’t necessarily need to have these features. But in its most classic style, you could say that a trucker hat is a type of baseball cap that meets the three criteria above.

Trucker hats are still cool and have become a symbol of American culture. They went through a fashion surge in the 2000s thanks to workwear and skater brands increasing in popularity. 

Although trucker caps were originally made by animal feed brands, we now associate them with popular labels (e.g., Adidas, Converse), and also with classic workwear and blue-collar brands (e.g., Dickies, Carhartt).

Originally, all trucker hats had a mesh panel at the back. In fact, it’s part of what made the style so popular with truckers because it helped them to keep cool when spending long days driving. Before they gained popularity with truckers, they were originally known as feeder caps because they were given away as freebies by animal feed companies.

However, the definition is looser than it used to be. We can customize your trucker hat in any way you like, meaning it doesn’t need to have a mesh back at all!

Originally, trucker hats were made from foam because it was cheap. But we can now customize your trucker hats to be made from a wide range of materials. Some of the most popular include cotton and leather, but there are also corduroy and denim trucker hats. In short, we can design and build a custom trucker hat to suit any style.
