Casper Ruud, Norway’s most successful tennis player to date, has quickly become a fixture at the top of the global tennis scene, recently winning his first major title in Madrid.
For years, Varsity Headwear has crafted caps for Casper’s team, becoming his preferred off-court headwear - often seen court-side and during press. As our relationship evolved, so did the idea of creating something more personal. Together, we set out to design a cap that reflected his life beyond tennis.
“I had thought about creating a cap before, but could never find the same quality and fit as a Varsity cap. It’s something I wear every day.”
When working on the design with Casper, it was important to design something that fit into his life off-court. What most people don’t know about Casper is that he is an avid golfer and when he is not playing tennis, he can be found on the course with his team.
The result is the Off-Court Cap. Versatile enough for everyday wear, yet engineered with technical elements for sport.

We met up with Casper in Palm Desert during the Indian Wells tournament to capture him Off Court. Surrounded by his team which is made up primarily of his close family and friends, we were struck by Casper’s humility and warmth to everyone on set. Alongside us, Olav Stubberud, a well-known Norwegian photographer and filmmaker, joined us on set for the day to capture Casper in action.
This collaboration is a celebration of a shared vision and something that we are proud to have worked with Casper on – a player that exemplifies the values and ambition we admire.
