Ayres \u0026 Company Embroidered Dad Cap Hat","description":"GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHonor a distinctive chapter of Indianapolis shopping with this L. S. Ayres Embroidered Dad Cap Hat. Founded in 1872, Ayres grew from a dry-goods store into a regional department-store name associated with fashionable finds, the Washington Street flagship, and the slogan “That Ayres Look.” Its Tea Room and elaborate Christmas displays remain vivid memories for many shoppers. This piece connects everyday wear with Indiana retail heritage and makes a considered choice for Ayres collectors and former customers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFounded in Indianapolis in 1872 by Lyman S. Ayres, L. S. Ayres \u0026amp; Company began as a dry-goods store, first operating as N. R. Smith and Ayres. The Ayres name appeared in 1874, and the business moved to West Washington Street in 1875. Its eight-story flagship at One West Washington Street opened in 1905 and grew into a major downtown complex. Known especially for women’s fashions, its Tea Room, holiday displays, and value-focused basement store, Ayres later expanded into Indiana shopping centers. Acquisitions added Bressmer’s in Springfield, Illinois, and Kaufman-Straus and Wolf \u0026amp; Dessauer in Kentucky and Indiana. Its Ayr-Way discount chain began in 1961; the stores later became Target locations. Associated Dry Goods acquired Ayres in 1972. After The May Department Stores Company acquired that parent in 1986, Ayres locations were reduced and its Indianapolis flagship closed in 1992. The remaining operation joined May’s Famous-Barr division. Following Federated Department Stores’ acquisition of May in 2005, Ayres was dissolved on February 1, 2006, and folded into Macy’s Midwest. The L. S. Ayres name was retired on September 9, 2006, as most stores became Macy’s.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduct features\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Unstructured 6-panel body for a relaxed, low-profile fit\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Permacurv® precurved visor with 4-row stitching and color-matched underbill\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Self-fabric hideaway strap with antique brass buckle and grommet for adjustable fit\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- 100% cotton construction (Green Camo variant 65% polyester \/ 35% cotton)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Sewn-in label and brand sticker on visor; adult sizing (not for ages 0–3)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCare instructions\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Use warm water and dish soap and clean spots off your hat.
