WE ARE STIKSEN
Stiksen is a Swedish brand that believes caps are as essential as any other garment. Our take is that big logotypes don’t make great caps - excellent quality does. We want our customers to feel comfortable wearing a high quality, sustainable cap in different kinds of settings, whether it be to dinner parties, the office or out in the breeze. Therefore, we offer minimalistic, Scandinavian headwear, trustworthy in function for all occasions.
WHY WE DO IT
The name Stiksen originates from co-founder Asim’s childhood when he was regularly asked by one of his teachers to take his cap off in the classroom. At the end of each class, the same teacher would jokingly say in Swedish ”Ta på dig kepsen och stick sen” [Stiksen], which roughly means “Put your cap on and then get out of here”.
A funny anecdote, but also a story that brings up the deeper question of what is considered acceptable in our society and why. We strive to contribute to a more inclusive world by removing barriers between cultures. One of the ways we do this is by elevating the cap and making it a suitable garment for every situation.
