A cap toe is a type of shoe that has horizontal stitching on the toe box that runs from the welt on one side to the other forming a cap shape on the toe box, hence the name cap toe. Cap-toe shoes are dressy and common business wear. They are mostly lace-up shoes (Derby or Oxford) but cap toes are also seen on loafers and monk strap shoes. On 1stDibs, you can find a range of modern and designer cap-toe shoe styles to choose from.

How can I tell if a Balenciaga cap is real?

To tell if a Balenciaga cap is real, check the stitching throughout. The stitching on an authentic Balenciaga cap should be flawless and symmetrical. Fake Balenciaga items are usually constructed with much less care, and this sloppiness will show in the piece’s stitchwork. A genuine Balenciaga baseball cap will also have a logo tag inside of the hat, and on the tag, the iconic Spanish brand’s name will be spelled correctly (the name will appear in crisp, evenly spaced letters). Shop a large collection of Balenciaga accessories and clothing from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
