The '''Wario Cap''' (or '''Wario's cap''') is [[Wario]]'s traditional headwear. The [[cap]] is yellow, with a large blue "W" [[emblem]] inside a small white circle and a white rim. It has been featured in every ''[[Wario Land (series)|Wario Land]]'' game, and many other appearances of Wario elsewhere (a notable exception is its absences in the ''[[WarioWare (series)|WarioWare]]'' series, as Wario wore a biking outfit in that series, instead of his classic clothing).

Like Mario and Luigi, Wario has been seen wearing the cap since he was a baby, as seen in Yoshi's Island DS. Unlike the Mario Cap, The Wario Cap usually serves no function other than for decorational purposes.
