Toddler ponytail ball cap

Morning at the swings calls for a simple cap that stays put. We shape this from washed cotton that feels soft from the first wear, then cut an opening at the back so a high ponytail sits right where it wants to. The brass buckle takes up the slack when the wind picks up across the grass.

Back opening for hair

Updos and high ponytails pull right through the back cutout. The cap sits level on the brow instead of riding up over thick hair bands while they run through the park.

Washed cotton crown

We use softened cotton that holds its rounded crown without feeling stiff. The deep espresso and charcoal tones hide sandbox dust through long mornings outside.

Brass buckle fit

A metal slider at the back lets you snug the band down before you head out. It adjusts smoothly and holds its place through sudden sprints and windy days.

Caring for the cloth

Rinse the crown in cold water by hand after dusty afternoons and press the water out gently. Lay it flat in the shade to dry so the bill keeps its curve.
