2012 – The Beginning

The vision behind NEBELKIND was clear from the very beginning: to design snapback caps that not only stand out with their unique design but also impress with high-quality craftsmanship and innovative features. In 2012, founder Christian Thielicke launched the first NEBELKIND Rec. Cap – still one of NEBELKIND's bestsellers to this day.



2014 – 2015 The DNA of NEBELKIND developed

Year after year, NEBELKIND expanded its range and left a lasting impression on the snapback market. Styles like the Berlin Snapback, Classy Snapback, and Insane are here to stay. During this time, the beanies also made their debut, and they are no longer just a side product but a perfect addition for those who want to rely on NEBELKIND even in the colder months.



2016 - 2018 – The Brand Grows & Strong Partnerships Emerge

NEBELKIND had long made a name for itself. In 2016, a groundbreaking retail partnership followed with MS SPIRIT HANDELS GmbH & Co. KG from Austria. Alongside its own collections, NEBELKIND launched exclusive collaborations with renowned partners like Ankerkraut, the DJ duo Anstandslos & Durchgeknallt, and the marine conservation organization Ozeankind e. V. – merging style with sustainable commitment.



2018 - 2020 – The Snapback Society was born.

These years marked a milestone for NEBELKIND: the breakthrough in the snapback market was achieved! With new designs like Pixel I, Barbed Wire, and Shorty, NEBELKIND launched iconic styles. During this time, the Winkekatze Cap in striking green was designed, showcasing NEBELKIND’s shift toward bolder, more colorful styles.



2020 - 2023 – Creativity Defies the Crisis

The pandemic brought challenges, but NEBELKIND refused to slow down. In 2022, the label introduced its biggest and most colorful collection to date. Caps like Miami, Teal, and Ballin proved one thing: Streetwear doesn’t always have to be gray!



2024 – A Defining Moment for the Brand

The year 2024 was a turning point: Founder Christian Thielicke, wanted to take the brand to the next level and expand internationally. But one thing was clear – NEBELKIND had to be in good hands. Instead of selling to a major fashion corporation, he chose a trusted partner: MS SPIRIT HANDELS GmbH & Co. KG. The next big step? Moving the brand to Vienna.



2025 – The NEBELKIND DNA Lives On

With the new collection featuring Japan Cyber Punk, FOG Green, Pixel 3, and a stylish kids cap line, NEBELKIND once again proves what it stands for: the perfect snapback cap.

The journey continues…
