Low Profile
Low profile caps have a crown height of approximately 2.5–3 inches, offering a close, comfortable fit and a relaxed look. They feature an unstructured crown that hugs the head and provides minimal branding space.
Mid Profile
Mid profile caps feature a balanced crown height of around 3–3.5 inches. They are structured for stability, offering a classic, versatile silhouette that suits most head shapes.
Pro Profile
Pro profile caps vary in crown height but are generally structured with a tailored, sporty look and a slightly aggressive visor curve. They’re favored for team uniforms and performance activities.
High Profile
High profile caps have a tall crown (roughly 3.75–4+ inches) and often feature a flat or molded front panel. This dramatic silhouette provides maximum branding space and a bold look.
