3 Baseball Cap Storage Solutions That Rock

1. For The Most Frequently-Used Hats

This is the storage cap rack that's on the wall in my husband's closet. As you can see, it's very easy to get to these items as well as put them away. Thus, the things that are stored here are the things he uses the most.

I used the top storage bin for his beanies (and straw summer hat), because they are squishable, foldable and perfect candidates for a basket. The hooks below house the hats and baseball caps he wears often, the few belts he has and his favorite sweatshirt.

2. For The Less Frequently-Used Hats

Since my husband has many more hats than will comfortably fit on the wall rack in his closet, I also employed an open canvas bin as a baseball cap storage solution. It sits on a shelf in his closet and sports a "HATS" label on the front. In it are the baseball hats he wears less frequently and all of his Irish caps.

3. For The Never-Worn Hats

Lastly, there are the baseball caps and other hats that are too worn and unwearable, but my husband can't part with them. I call these "memory" hats, and they are stored in one of my husband's memory boxes with his other memory clothing (i.e. t-shirts).

I use a clear plastic labeled bin with a lid like this one. Bins like that are waterproof and keep the items inside dust-free, so basements and attics are suitable storage locations.

BONUS TIP: Seasonal Swap

If you're very low on closet space, then you can do a seasonal swap. Only keep the hats that are in season in the accessible spots and store away the out of season headwear elsewhere (e.g. in another closet, under the bed, in the attic, in the basement, wherever it makes sense). During the Spring and Fall, use this transition time to do your swap out.

FAMILY TIP: Multiple Locations

I haven't even mentioned our kids' hats! I created this post before we had kids, so time for an update. We had a lot of hats before our 2 boys were born, BUT NOW we have a ton and they keep multiplying (looking at you Little League!). That said, all of these solutions have withstood our family's evolution pretty nicely in addition to some new storage ideas.

On top of the 3 tips mentioned above, now we have a storage cabinet in our entryway that has 4 drawers. Each member of the family gets a drawer. In it are things like winter hats (the frequently-used ones), winter gloves and sunglasses. We also use hooks in the boys' rooms for the less-frequently worn hats, and any memory hats they have go in their memory bins. Keeping control of the hat chaos involves multiple appropriate locations and works very well for us.
