A cap is a form of headgear. Caps have crowns that fit very close to the head and have no brim or only a visor. They are typically designed for warmth and, when including a visor, blocking sunlight from the eyes. They come in many shapes and sizes.
Capa refers to the wide circular hooded cloak worn in Spain and France during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. The name was used during the Romantic period for evening cloaks.
