Luxury fashion house [Balenciaga](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/basketball-series) created a new fiery red BB Cap as a bold accessory to wear all summer long.

Constructed from a comfortable cotton twill, the hat was made with inspiration from [classic dad hats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/polo-ralph-lauren-new-era). The front features a distinct BB graphic embroidered delicately on the front in a bold black shade. The back of the hat has an adjustable [Velcro](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/patch-cap) fastening to offer the best fit possible. Adding venting throughout, the hat is airy and breathable for hot summer days. The long beak provides sun protection for the face and eyes while offering a unique rounded off style.

Balenciaga's new red BB Cap was made to add a pop of color to any outfit and is available online now for $350.
