Creating the Look
Choose Your Colors Wisely: Since the cap features a blend of green and red tones, consider choosing an Aran sweater in a neutral color palette such as natural, green, or slate. These colors not only complement the cap but also provide a neutral backdrop that allows the cap to stand out as the focal point of your outfit.
Layering for Style: To enhance your look, consider adding layers. A stylish men's cardigan can elevate your outfit and add an extra dimension.
Accessorize Thoughtfully: Accessories can make or break an outfit. Pair your ensemble with a classic pair of aran gloves or a simple aran scarf.

When it comes to styling the Trinity Flat Cap in black, the versatility of neutral tones offers endless possibilities. Wearing a white sweater, such as our classic aran sweater will add depth to your outfit.
For those cooler autumn days, layer the flat cap over a wool sweater or a cosy cardigan. Choose a sweater with a bit of color, such as a deep Claret or forest green. This creates a striking contrast against the black cap while keeping the overall vibe cohesive and sophisticated.
Accessorizing the Trinity Flat Cap Black
Accessorizing is key to refining your look. Here are some thoughtful ways to add flair to your outfit when wearing the Trinity Flat Cap Black:
Add a Cashmere scarf: Adding a luxurious cashmere scarf will not only keep you warm and cosy, but will completely elevate your style.
