Our take · Researched, not tested

Black leather flat cap. Cool-girl moto vibes, zero effort.

A black leather flat cap is the accessory that makes a basic outfit look like you have a stylist. This Bookie is lightweight cowhide, four panels with a stitched peak, and it sits low with a 2 1/2 in crown and a 1 1/2 in brim. No band, sewn-in sweatband. Formula: this cap, a white tee, a black blazer and straight jeans. Sizes are MD, LG and XL.

Jessica's tip: Wear it with your hair down and tucked behind your ears. Big curls under a flat cap? Also a yes.

Side view on a 7 in head, drawn to scale. Dashed lines mean the store doesn't list that number.

Great for

  • Elevating basics like tees and jeans
  • Windy days, thanks to leather
  • MD, LG or XL heads

Skip it if

  • You need a hat that packs flat: the store doesn't list it as packable
  • You want maximum shade: the brim is 1 1/2 in

Questions

Which size of the Bookie should I get?
Measure your head where the hat sits and match it to the chart. MD fits heads 22 to 22 3/4 in (56 to 57 cm) on American Hat Makers' chart. XL fits heads 23 5/8 to 24 1/4 in (60 to 61 cm) on American Hat Makers' chart. Between sizes, American Hat Makers says to size up and use the foam insert it includes.
Is the Bookie enough for sun?
Not on its own. A cap or peak shades your eyes but leaves your ears and neck exposed, as MD Anderson points out. Add sunscreen, or pick a brimmed hat for long days outside.
How do you care for a leather hat like the Bookie?
Wipe it with a soft, barely damp cloth and let it dry away from heat, which can stiffen and crack leather. A leather conditioner keeps it supple; test it inside the crown first. Never machine-wash it.
What if it doesn't fit?
American Hat Makers states 90-day easy returns (per American Hat Makers, as stated on their site Nov 6, 2026). Check the store's current policy before you buy; its page is the final word.
