Abstract: A cap having a crown formed of a plurality of crown segments located in side-by-side relationship and having a visor attached to the crown brim and extending outwardly therefrom. The crown segments are seamed together adjacent to their contiguous edges. The visor is laterally centered on and attached to the front of the crown brim and the junctures of the peripheral edge of the visor and the crown brim are proximate to two of the crown segment seams, such that the visor is centered between those two segment seams. A strip of seam tape is located beneath the segment seams on the inside of the crown. A stay of stiffening material is located under each of the two crown seams proximate to the junctures of the visor and the crown brim and is disposed between the strip of seam tape and the inside surface of the crown.
