東京 (Tōkyō): "the eastern capital."

Edo became Tokyo in 1868, the year the shogunate fell and the young Emperor Meiji took power back. Kyoto had held the imperial court since 794, so the new name made a point: tō for east, kyō for capital, the eastern capital. The emperor arrived that November, the shogun's castle at the heart of the city became his residence, and the Imperial Palace still stands on that ground.

Faded denim blue, with "Tokyo" across the front in tall letters, the T drawn with a flourish, and the kanji underneath. 東京 (Tōkyō) is 東 "east" plus 京 "capital." The color has gone uneven across the crown, the way a cap looks after a few summers.

Low and soft, it sits right with a plain white tee and sunglasses on a hot afternoon. It's an easy souvenir for someone who has been, or a promise to someone who hasn't. The rest are in our Japanese caps.
