Yoruba caps (Fila wa).
A yoruba man's native attire be it agbada, buba and sokoto is not complete without matching fila (cap). These are a few of our caps.
1) ABETI AJA(like a dog's ear): common among both old and young and also drummers. Triangular with 2 edges like a dog's ear
GOBI: Most common among yoruba male caps. Can be tilted in different directions. If tilted right (wearer is single), left means married, forward means glorious future ahead, upward may indicate pride 🙂
Gobi-agbę(farmers), Gobi-ódę(hunters)are gobi with pouches

KUFI: This is a very simple cap worn by some yoruba men.
Our caps are either sewn or handmade from fabrics like aso-oke, damask, cotton and the rest. Just make sure they fit your head.
