The Fresno cap, for the town that is the gateway to the High Sierra. An unstructured cotton dad cap with the Fresno vintage retro logo embroidered on the front in white thread.

The cap is the easiest Fresno piece to wear every day and the easiest to give: one size, breathable cotton, a curved visor and an antique-brass buckle. It softens with wear and stays on the hook by the door. Order one for the beach bag and one for the glovebox.

Low-profile and unstructured, this 6-panel embroidered dad cap has a Permacurv visor, a self-fabric hideaway strap with antique-brass buckle, a matching undervisor, and four-row visor stitching for durability. Breathable 100% cotton in every color except the camo variation, which is 65% polyester / 35% cotton. The classic embroidered finish is durable and vintage-inspired. Embroidery is thread, not ink, so slight differences from the digital product image are normal; full details are explained in our Embroidery footer.

The Central Pacific founded Fresno as a railroad station in 1872, named for the ash trees along the San Joaquin River; it became county seat in 1874 and incorporated in 1885. Irrigation in the 1880s turned the valley into the most productive farm county in the nation, and Baldassare Forestiere hand-dug his sixty-five-room Underground Gardens from 1906 to 1946.

The 1894 Old Fresno Water Tower, the 1896 Santa Fe Depot, the 1939 Tower Theatre and the 1914 Holy Trinity Armenian Church mark the city’s eras, and Yosemite, Kings Canyon and Sequoia all lie within about an hour and a half. The heart of the Valley is the mark on this piece.

Product FAQs

How does your sizing work?

Every item is made to order, so please check the size chart on this page before you buy. Women's fitted tees run small; size up for a looser fit. Caps are one size with an adjustable strap.

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. You'll get a tracking link the moment it ships. Any current shipping offer is shown in the bar at the top of every page and applies automatically at checkout, no code needed.

How do I send a gift?

Enter the recipient's address as the shipping address and your own as the billing address at checkout. Nothing ships with a price; the package includes a plain packing slip. Tracking goes to your email, not theirs. For birthdays and holidays, order two weeks ahead to be safe.

What's the return policy?

Made-to-order items can't be returned or exchanged for size or color, so please use the size chart and photos before ordering. If anything arrives defective, misprinted or damaged, send a photo and your order number within 30 days and we'll replace it or refund you.

How do I care for my item?

Printed glasses and water bottles: hand wash only, no dishwasher, so the artwork lasts. Mugs and engraved glasses are dishwasher safe. Any item-specific care notes are in the description above.

All Fresno California Items

The accident that made an empire. Ask how the raisin business started and Fresno will tell you the story: in 1873 a brutal heat wave dried a farmer's Muscat grapes right on the vine — a ruined crop, until a San Francisco grocer sold the shriveled clusters as a delicacy and asked for more. The Valley has been drying grapes in the sun on purpose ever since, by the billions.

“Fresno” is Spanish for ash tree — named for the ashes along the San Joaquin River; the city began in 1872 as a Central Pacific Railroad station.

Why People Visit Fresno

Visitors choose Fresno for its unique gardens, family-friendly parks, and gateway convenience. The Tower District and downtown highlight history and everyday culture, and the city's central location makes regional day trips simple — most of all into the High Sierra. Travelers find year-round appeal in its parks, paths, and public spaces, where vintage farm-town California and the wild mountains beyond sit side by side in a welcoming way.
