I picked up this linen newsboy cap at a shop on the Turkish Riviera. I loved how in looked in the mirror...front and sides. After I got home I checked out the back...Hmmm

Im not that familier with linen Newsboy/Bakerboy caps.

Does this look normal ?

I dig this cap. Its so light and cool and NO UV is passing through this. Its at least upf 50+.

Does that back view normal. I ironed it but each section has its own corners.

ohh and these shots are from Turkiye. That Arabic caligraphy is a quote from a poem by Rumi Mevlana....

I would say no, it does not look normal. It seems to me that the panels are cut for a larger sized cap and therefore too much material for a cap this size. However, in my world, as it is in the back of the cap, I can't see it so therefore it does not exist.

I think youre right...So I folded my hankerchief and tucked it in under the wide sweat band; in the back of the cap. I think it fixed it...What do you think?
