Swedish student caps traditionally come in two main variants, named after the two universities in existence at the time of their original adoption. The "Uppsala cap" has a black band, blue and yellow lining, and a somewhat soft crown. The "Lund cap" has a dark blue band, red lining, and a stiffer crown. The earliest student cap known to have been preserved, a mid-19th century Uppsala cap in the collections of the Nordic Museum but currently exhibited at the Uppland Provincial Museum (in Uppsala), is considerably softer and looser in style than the modern or even late 19th century caps.
