The '''Mario Cap''' (or '''Mario's cap''') is an important part of [[Mario]]'s clothing and one of the most iconic clothing items in gaming. The [[cap]] is red and has Mario's "M" symbol; he is almost never seen without it in his adventures.

When Mario collects almost any power-up, his cap either disappears (as with the [[Frog Suit]], [[Tanooki Suit]], or [[Penguin Suit]]) or changes appearance or color with the rest of his normal outfit (e.g., [[Fire Mario]], [[Ice Mario]], [[Rock Mario]], [[Cloud Mario]], etc.).

The cap has appeared with Mario ever since ''Donkey Kong'', but it was unimportant until ''[[Super Mario 64]]''—the first game in which Mario can lose his cap. If his cap is lost (having been stolen by an [[Ukiki|Ukkiki]] or [[Klepto]] or blown off by a gust of [[wind]] from the [[snowman]] in [[Snowman's Land]], for instance), Mario takes more damage when attacked. If he leaves a [[level]] after collecting a [[Power Star]] without his cap, Mario pats his head, looks behind him, and puts his arms up as if he has no idea where his cap has gone, instead of taking it off to scratch his head before putting it back on. Mario then has to go back to the course in which he lost his cap in order to retrieve it, but in the [[Super Mario 64 DS|DS remake]], if he instead gets a Power Star from another course, he can simply talk to a [[Toad (species)|Toad]] (who will have found and be wearing Mario's cap) in the [[Peach's Castle|Mushroom Castle]]'s lobby and get it back from him.

If his cap is lost (having been stolen by a [[Ukiki|Ukkiki]] or [[Klepto]] or blown off by a gust of [[wind]] from the [[snowman]] in [[Snowman's Land]], for instance), Mario takes 50% more damage when attacked. If he leaves a [[level]] after collecting a [[Power Star]] without wearing his cap, Mario pats his head, looks behind him, and puts his arms up as if he has no idea where his cap has gone, instead of taking it off to scratch his head before putting it back on.

In the original ''Super Mario 64'', Mario also makes use of three different types of caps in addition to his regular cap: the [[Wing Cap]] (which enables him to [[fly]]), the [[Metal Cap]] (which enables him to walk underwater and through fire), and the [[Vanish Cap]] (which enables him to walk through certain walls).

While these powers are dispersed amongst Mario and his companions in ''Super Mario 64 DS'', Mario's cap gains a new ability: When worn, it turns [[Luigi]], [[Yoshi]], or [[Wario]] into Mario. If the real Mario loses his cap, he cannot use the [[Wing Cap|Wings]], use other caps, or use [[Power Flower (Super Mario 64 DS)|Power Flower]] abilities. In this title, a Toad reveals that the cap Mario wears is special and that if it were to get blown off, Mario would have nothing but bad luck. Mario's cap is hinted to be a source of his strength, though this does not apply in other games where Mario can have his cap off. Mario's cap appears in the following courses, even when he is locked: the [[Bob-omb Battlefield]] (Star 2 or 4), [[Whomp's Fortress]] (Star 1 or 2), [[Jolly Roger Bay]], and [[Cool, Cool Mountain]] (Star 2). Mario's cap can also be found in most levels when the player plays as any other character once he has been unlocked. Yoshi, Luigi, and Wario can pick up the cap, which gives them the appearance and abilities of Mario (though they retain their voices) until they lose it, get hit by an enemy, or finish a level.

The same effects of Mario's cap in ''Super Mario 64'' hold true in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'' but with the added effect of Mario gradually losing health due to the heat. The only enemies that steal Mario's cap in this game are [[Swipin' Stu]]s.

Due to a [[List of Super Mario Sunshine glitches#No Hat NPC Death|glitch]], Mario will still lose health while speaking to NPCs and can even perform his death animation. However, the "Too Bad!" screen will not appear if this occurs, showing up only after Mario finishes talking to an NPC.

In ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'', the cap, among others, plays an exceptionally important role. During the initial battle on [[Bowser]]'s [[airship]], Bowser's final attack knocks the cap off of Mario's head and sends Mario flying off. With Mario gone, Bowser stomps on the cap and leaves it to drift into his airship's propellers, where it is completely shredded. A piece of the cap is retrieved by Cappy, who uses it to transform into an exact replica of the cap when he and Mario team up.
