Description Crown Cap’s history in headwear dates back 90 years. Let’s return, for a moment, to the post-Depression years, when a devastating drought blanketed the Prairies for a decade. While the conditions wreaked havoc on the Western Canadian farm trade, those working on the land tried to seek relief and protection from the powerful sun and relentless heat. The idea for Crown Cap was born in 1934, launching what’s since become a successful venture in manufacturing textile headwear for almost a century. From humble roots outfitting folks on the farm with fitted work caps, they’ve evolved into the largest hat manufacturer and leading headwear designer in Canada.
