Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a cap with a new structure that can be easily worn by people with long hair. In the cap according to the present disclosure, since a male button (42) provided on a strap (30) is coupled to a female button (41) provided on a side surface of a crown (10), the strap (30) may be configured to be sufficiently long. Accordingly, after a user wears the cap, the strap (30) may be passed under the hair and fixed using button members (41, 42). Thus, there are advantages that it is not necessary to take out the hair by passing the hair through an opening (11) and it is more convenient to wear the cap.
