🧢 Billed Cap

Unicode lists 🧢 Billed Cap among the clothing in the Objects group. It usually appears in messages about baseball, bent, billed and cap. The keyword list continues with dad and hat.

One caveat: 🧢 has a well-established second meaning in online slang. Read it in context rather than at face value – the double meaning overview has the details.

You can drop 🧢 into chats, social posts, headlines or a bio. On SmileyZone it is filed under Clothing and Fashion. Added in 2017 with Emoji 5.0, it displays correctly on every up-to-date system. Its code point is U+1F9E2.

• A single 🧢 is often enough to set the tone.
• Fits messages about baseball, bent, billed and cap.
• Often seen near 🎓 Graduation Cap, 🪖 Military Helmet and 🎩 Top Hat.

Since around 2018 the baseball cap has stood online for a lie: in African American English cap means a lie, and no cap means “no kidding”. The emoji is therefore placed under claims the reader thinks are made up – a meaning that cannot be derived from the picture at all.

The expression comes from AAVE and spread widely through hip-hop and TikTok. Anyone unaware of that origin simply reads the sign as a hat.
