This is our retro Jacksonville, Florida logo, printed in weathered charcoal on a retro vintage washed cap — an unstructured cotton dad hat that looks broken in from the day it arrives. The charcoal carries a faint wavering tone and a light speckle, so the print reads like it has been in the sun as long as the cap has.

One size fits most, so it is an easy gift to get right: no size to guess, only the town. Each cap is made to order. Hand wash cold and air dry, and keep it out of the dryer.

Platted in 1822 and named for Andrew Jackson, the city on the north-flowing St. Johns River burned on May 3, 1901, in the largest urban fire the Southeast has seen: 146 blocks and more than 2,300 buildings in a single day, the glow visible from Savannah. Henry John Klutho rebuilt it in Prairie School lines, the largest collection outside the Midwest.

More than thirty silent-film studios made Jacksonville the Winter Film Capital in the 1910s, the 1968 consolidation with Duval County made it the largest city by land area in the contiguous U.S., and its 80,000 acres of parks are the largest urban park system in the nation. River City is the mark on this piece.

The cap is 8.5 oz 100% cotton twill, enzyme washed and heavily brushed for a soft hand, with an unstructured six-panel crown, a mid-profile fit and a curved bill. A self-fabric strapback with a metal slider adjusts the fit and tucks away, and a self-fabric sweatband lines the inside. It is garment dyed with OEKO-TEX certified low-impact dyes, so every cap's color varies slightly — washed here means faded color and a weathered print, not distressed or frayed.

How are items made and when will they arrive?

We make each item to order using premium blanks, embroidery and soft-hand prints. Production takes 2-5 business days (weekends and holidays excluded), then 4-10 days in transit via USPS, UPS or FedEx to U.S. addresses; most orders arrive within 6-15 business days.

The Navy settled the river in the 1940s — Naval Air Station Jacksonville in 1940, Naval Station Mayport at the river’s mouth in 1942 — and shipyards worked around the clock through the war; the carriers and the naval air overhead have been part of the city’s weather ever since. In 1968 Jacksonville and Duval County consolidated into a single government, and the city woke up the largest by land area in the contiguous United States: room enough inside the limits for the Atlantic beaches — off which the North Atlantic right whale, the most endangered of the great whales, comes to calve each winter — 80,000 acres of parks, the centuries-old Treaty Oak on the Southbank, Friendship Fountain facing the skyline, and the cable-stayed sweep of the Dames Point Bridge downriver.

A few blocks from the film studios’ offices, the LaVilla district rang with another kind of genius — a center of Black business, jazz, and blues through the 1910s, ’20s, and ’30s, and the boyhood home of the writer and civil-rights leader James Weldon Johnson, who with his brother wrote Lift Every Voice and Sing in Jacksonville in 1900, while he was principal of the Stanton School. The song went out from this city to the nation. LaVilla’s enterprise built fortunes too: A.L. Lewis, Jacksonville’s first Black millionaire and founder of the Afro-American Life Insurance Company, created American Beach on the sands to the north — a seaside haven for Black families in the segregation era. LaVilla’s stages hosted the great touring acts of the era, and its story is being told again today in a district the city is bringing back block by block.

Why People Visit Jacksonville Florida

Jacksonville offers a Prairie School downtown no one expects in the South, a great river running the wrong way to the sea, beaches without the resort crowds, live oaks and marsh preserves, shrimp boats and naval carriers sharing one river mouth, and neighborhoods that kept their bones. Visitors come for the beaches, the river, the architecture, the parks, and the easy room of the biggest city in America. On the St. Johns since 1822.
