A
baseball cap is a type of soft
cap with a rounded crown and a stiff peak projecting in front. The front of the cap typically contains designs or
logos of sports teams (namely
baseball teams, or names of relevant companies, when used as a commercial marketing technique). The back of the cap may be "fitted" to the wearer's head size or it may have a
plastic,
Velcro, or
elastic adjuster so that it can be quickly adjusted to fit different wearers. The baseball cap is a part of the traditional
baseball uniform worn by players, with the brim pointing forward to shield the eyes from the sun. The cap is often seen in everyday casual wear.
