Q. How did KimKaps begin?
A. KimKaps was started by a surgical nurse longing for an alternative to the disposable blue "mops" she and the rest of the surgical team wore on their heads during their long hours in the OR.
She knew these mops contain fiberglass, which damages and breaks hair, and that their disposable nature discourages environmentally-friendly practices. But most of all, she knew these mops are UGLY! She designed and began making 100% cotton scrub hats for herself out of the cutest and most durable fabrics she could find. Soon she was outfitting the surgical teams in her hospital with her creations when her colleagues begged her to make them cuter in the OR, too! Since launching KimKaps, Kim and her creative team have brought a world of cute to the world of scrubs with distinct styles of scrub hats in dozens of fabulous fabric choices.

Q.Can I order a KimKap that isn't shown in the style I want?
A. We sew all of our KimKaps prior to listing them on the website, and we don't keep extra fabric in stock so we are unable to offer KimKaps in alternative styles other than what is available on the website. Because we like to offer our customers a variety of options, we typically only run fabrics once. If the fabric is not shown on our
website in a particular style, chances are that it is sold out. We also offer custom caps, and you can scroll down for more information on that option.
Q.I saw a picture on your blog of a cap in a fabric I really like, but don’t see it on your website. Can I still order it?
A. The pictures of KimKaps shown on models are used for advertising purposes and to demonstrate the fit of each of our individual styles. While the
fabric options shown were available at one time, if they are not on the website
then they are out of stock. We do add new caps each week.
