“Succession” may be over, but the show’s impact is living on, with the HBO series landing a nine nominations for the 2024 Golden Globe Awards. “Succession’s” sartorial influence continues to grow too, with the characters’ outfits and accessories spawning almost as many “get the look” articles as the series did think pieces. One of the most searched-for clothing items on “Succession was also one of the most simple: Kendall Roy’s baseball cap.
In addition to his custom suits, Jacques Marie Mage sunglasses and Gucci sneakers, Roy’s outfits were often finished off with a fitted, logo-less baseball cap from Italian brand Loro Piana. Roy’s portrayer Jeremy Strong was such a fan of the hats that he admitted to wearing the cap even when he wasn’t filming the show.
But this isn’t just any regular baseball cap — Loro Piana makes its hat from high-end Italian materials like cashmere, and the resulting price point is a similarly high-end $500+ online.
