The baseball cap in the spotlight in the Succession series
The classic baseball cap is worn by most of the characters in the show. This may seem like a mundane style choice, but it actually says a lot about the characters. Baseball caps are a simple and comfortable style choice, suggesting that the characters who wear them are practical and unpretentious people. This fits with the image that the characters in Succession are trying to project of themselves.
The newsboy flat cap as a guest star
Another star of Succession, the flat cap, also known as the "newsboy" or "Gatsby" cap, is a popular choice among Succession characters.
Logan Roy, the patriarch of the family, loves baseball caps, but also the flat tweed cap. This style of cap is traditionally associated with the British upper classes, highlighting Logan's colonial background and connection to a global elite.
Kendall Roy, Logan's oldest son, wears a traditional baseball cap. This style of cap is often associated with youth and pop culture, reflecting Kendall's desire to stand out from the elite in his family and find his own way in the world.
Roman Roy, Logan's youngest son, wears a baseball cap with a curved peak. This style of cap is often associated with athleticism and casualness, emphasizing Roman's detached and sarcastic persona.
Statutory golf caps in Succession
Tom Wamsgans, Logan's son-in-law, often wears a golf cap. This style of cap is associated with the world of golf and business, highlighting Tom's desire to be part of Logan's elite and find his place in the business world.
Greg Hirsch, Logan Roy's grandson, is often seen wearing a baseball cap bearing the logo of the American fast-food chain Shake Shack, reflecting his lack of experience and his status as a novice and naive in the business world.
