This is our retro Palm Beach, 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.

The coconuts that named Palm Beach washed ashore from the wreck of the Providencia in 1878. Henry Flagler opened the Royal Poinciana, then the largest wooden building in the world, in 1894, brought the railway in 1896, finished his marble mansion Whitehall in 1902, and the town incorporated in 1911.

Addison Mizner’s Everglades Club of 1918 began the Mediterranean Revival that became the Palm Beach look, Worth Avenue’s arcades and vias followed, and the present Breakers rose over the Atlantic in 1926. A sixteen-mile barrier island between Lake Worth and the ocean, America’s original winter playground 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.

The island had a name before it had a resort, and the name came from a shipwreck. In 1878 a Spanish brig called the Providencia ran aground here carrying a cargo of coconuts; the settlers along Lake Worth salvaged them and planted them, and within a few years the shore was lined with palms. People started calling the place Palm Beach. Before any of that the Jaega people had lived along these waters for centuries, and a scattering of pioneers grew pineapples and tended the new palm groves. It was a quiet frontier coast — until the tracks came south.

That shopping street is Worth Avenue, named in 1913 for General William Jenkins Worth — the same officer Fort Worth, Texas, is named for. Mizner and those who followed lined it with arcades and tucked hidden courtyards, the Vias, behind the storefronts: little open-air passages of shops and fountains reached through archways off the main walk. Since the 1920s it has been one of the most famous luxury shopping streets in the country, a quarter mile of boutiques running from the Mediterranean arcades down to the clock tower at the ocean.

Why People Visit Palm Beach

Palm Beach offers refined culture beside an easy ocean shoreline. Visitors pair the Flagler and Mizner heritage with museum galleries, gardens, and a quiet bike path along the water. It is polished, historic, and relaxed in pace, with year-round appeal in its parks, paths, and public spaces. The vintage Gilded Age glamour is evergreen, drawing architecture lovers and vintage-resort enthusiasts from well beyond the small island, and history and everyday island life sit side by side here in a welcoming way.
