Damage-Preventing Hat Clips

The 'CapSnap' Keeps Your Hat within Reach and Prevents Loss

— February 13, 2018 — Fashion
Anyone who has lost a hat or ruined it by stuffing it into their pack will be interested in the 'CapSnap' as a piece of equipment that will enable them to ensure it never happens again. Clipping onto your choice of bag, the device works by offering a dedicated spot to store your cap when it isn't on your head. This keeps it within reach, prevents you from losing it and will even stop damage from being incurred by eliminating the need for it to be stored in your backpack.

The 'CapSnap' clips onto the top button on ball caps to leave no marks, imprints or damage once it's removed to ensure it's ready to wear immediately.
