You can,t just ask for a cap, a cap is a thing that grows with you, a work of art, a cap is more than the sum of a cap, a cap will need to mould to your head and may take years to train, it will need to fit before and after a hair cut, it will have a aroma all of its own, you must guard it from your wife, I have found that it is best to have a replacement cap just in case your favourite cap should get lost, it is best to start training the replacement cap well in advance of the loss of your best cap, even following this advice, the shock of losing your favourite cap will be disturbing
