25 Different Ways to Store Baseball Hats
Most of the hat storage ideas featured in this article pertain to baseball caps.
But there are hat storage options for cowboy hats and other wide-brimmed hats too.
Whichever style of hats you have, the best way to store hats is out of direct sunlight to avoid fading.
And if you live in a particularly dusty area, you may want to cover your hats or put them in your closet.
1) Horizontal Hat Storage Hanger [goes over a clothes hanger]
The company Loki Essentials makes this closet rod hat hanger that can store up to 10 hats.
You can buy a 2 pack so you can store up to 20 of your hats.
This could be a good option if you have room in your closet.
2) Hat Shelf Organizer for your Closet
This 10-shelf hanging hat organizer is a convenient way to store your baseball caps in your closet. Plus, there is a plastic dust cover on the front. The shelves are 9-inches wide so they should fit your hats well, and it secures to your closet rod with Velcro.
3) Cap Capers (display your ball caps on the wall)
If you want to store your cap collection on the wall – and you don’t mind them getting a little dusty – you can check out the Cap Capers.
I first came across these on Tiktok video below…where over 1,700 people commented on her video. Most wanted to know what they’re called and where to get them. Well, the answer is Cap Capers and you can get them on Amazon.
4) Hanging Closet Organizer Shelves
I know this shows wide-brimmed hats, but this will work for baseball caps too.
You can combine the two pieces into one taller organizer, or keep separate as in the photo above.
And if you don’t have 10 hats to fill all the shelves, you can use the shelves for other things like sweaters too.
5) The “Dome Dock” – a wall mounted hat storage rack
See that black plastic thing on the wall in the picture above…that is the “Dome Dock.”
If you have all ball caps, then this might work for you. You attach the “Dome Dock” to the wall and stick the brim of your hat down inside the Dome Dock. Then you tuck your next hat behind the first hat, and so on….
The downside to this option is that it may not work well unless you have flat-billed hats (ones with flat brims).
And if you want a hat that is stacked in the middle of the pile you have to remove all the hats above it then put them all back.
It’s a great way to take advantage of vertical wall space.
Some people complain about the price. I’ll let you decide.
6) Wall-mounted Hat Rack with Key Holder Hooks
This is a similar hat storage idea as the Dome Deck but this one has the added feature of the hooks for hanging up your keys.
It’s a great option for small spaces because of its double-duty functionality.
7) Over the Door hat hanger – a vertical hat storage idea
This product called the CapRack18 is made by Perfect Curve is intended for hats and visors that are adjustable and have the little hole at the back with the adjustable strap.
You can hold up to 9 hats on the back of your door with one of these hanger strips, and since it comes as a 2-pack you’ll be able to store up to 18 hats behind your door.
This is a very popular hat hanger. It helps you store a large number of hats and put them in an “out of the way” spot.
8) Accordion style Hat Rack for your Wall
This wooden accordion-style wall rack has 17 wooden pegs to hang your hats, coats, etc…
You can mount it to your wall horizontally – as shown above – or you can mount it vertically.
If the hat lover in your family wears a hat daily, then having one of these by the front door is a great idea. They can just grab it and go.
9) Hat Storage Cubbies (by Boxy Concepts)
Do you have a baseball cap collection that you’re proud of?
These hat boxes from Boxy Concepts are stackable so you can put them in your closet or on a shelf.
But some people say these hat crates are better suited for hats that you don’t wear too often. (It isn’t as easy to get into one of these as it is to pluck a hat off a hat rack.)
Click here for more details on these hat storage boxes.
10) Tree shaped Hat Rack (attractive entryway organizer)
This hat rack looks like a tree branch and has 8 branches that act as hooks for your hats, coats, scarves, etc…
What I like about an option like this is that your frequently worn hats will be easily reachable, and conveniently close to your front door.
It’s functional and looks good too.
11) Hat-Tac Hat Racks
These plastic wall-mounted hat racks by Hat-Tac stick to your wall using an adhesive. No screwing required. And they claim the adhesive is damage-free.
You store one hat on each hook, and you’ll get 4 of these wall hooks in one order.
You could place these low-profile hooks at the back of a door and take advantage of wasted space.
Will these work for you?
12) Hat Rail – Hat Organizer (Amazon)
This wall-mounted hat rack has room to hang 7 adjustable baseball caps, visors or trucker hats.
I like how the screw holes are 16-inches apart so you should be able to hit the wall studs on a standard 16-inch-on-center studded wall.
This was invented by a husband and wife duo out of Utah.
13) Handmade Wooden Hat Rack (Etsy)
If you love the charm on handmade wood projects, check out this wooden hat rack made by StoneMTNProjects on Etsy.
You can get it with 3 hooks (like shown above), or you can get it with 6 hat hooks.

15) Hockey Stick Hat Rack (easy DIY option to store baseball hats)
Here is a homemade hockey stick hat rack that my sister made for her son.

What better way to hang baseball caps than on a baseball bat!
This handmade hat rack is made from a real Louisville Slugger ash-wood baseball bat that is sawed in half.

17) Wall-mounted Hat Hanging Rail (with clips)
You could do something like this by getting a towel rack and some curtain clips, or you could save the running around and buy this set from the company HYDERMUS.
They are a popular option. And because it clips to the fabric, it works for adjustable caps or fitted caps.
BUT… you have to take the time to actually clip them back up.
If you want a similar option – but no clips – check out the option below.
18) Hat Hanging Rail with S Hooks
If you like the idea of a hat rail, but you don’t want to fuss with clips, check this out.
Basically it is a towel rack and some S-hooks. But they sell them as a 2-pack of rails with 20 hooks in total.
It is best for adjustable caps (with the hole at the back), but fitted hats can stay too: just not as securely.
They’re made by the company Mkono.
19) Vertical Wall Storage Spike
This is a great option if you have adjustable ball caps like truckers hats.
Screw the faceplate into the wall then store your hats on the spike. Easy.

Here is another cowboy hat holder, but this horseshoe hat holder (say that 3 times fast) doesn’t touch your hat’s brim. It holds up the hat where your head would be.
Note the wood doesn’t come with this. What you get is the welded and powder-coated horseshoe hat rack.

You can buy a 4-pack of these u-shaped hat hooks on Amazon, and then screw them into your wall or mount them to a decorative piece of wood.
They are marketed as being cowboy hat holders, but they’d work for other wide-brimmed hats like fedoras, and the hooks would work for ball caps too.
