Australian summers are absolutely scorching, and the sun here is no joke. UV levels are so high because of our position near the equator, Earth’s orbit bringing us closer to the sun in summer, and a clear, unpolluted atmosphere. Add a thinner ozone layer over the southern hemisphere, and UV exposure in Australia is way higher than in the north.
Between beach trips, brunches, festivals, and hot girl walks, your head deserves more than just sunglasses. Enter the embroidered baseball cap: the perfect combo of style, personality, and sun protection.
At Poppy Talls, we turn viral humour into wearable art. Our embroidered caps aren’t just functional—they’re bold, cheeky, and unapologetically fun. Here’s why every wardrobe needs one this season.
1. Protection Meets Style
Australia has the highest melanoma rates in the world. Melanoma is often referred to as ‘Australia’s national cancer’.
• 1 Australian is diagnosed with melanoma every 30 minutes
• Melanoma is the third most common cancer in Australia
• 95% of melanomas are caused by overexposure to UV radiation from the sun
We all grew up with the messaging “Slip, Slop, Slap”, which has now evolved to “Slip, Slop, Slap, Seek, Slide”. When it comes to slapping on a hat, Poppy Talls has you covered.
Our sun protection caps and embroidered baseball caps shield your face, scalp, and ears while keeping your summer style on point. Perfect for brunch, beach days, or festivals, these caps are as functional as they are fun.
2. Every Cap Tells a Story
Every Poppy Talls embroidered baseball cap is crafted with care. Every slogan is hand-designed, and every font is carefully handpicked to match its mood, attitude, and nonsense level.
