London's chic Burberry Group is dropping one of its baseball caps because it's become a signature of British soccer hooligans. The $90 cap has become such a provocative symbol that many British bouncers won't let people in bars if they're wearing one, Sky News reported Friday. The global fashion house stopped production of the cap amid concern about its possible effect on its tony image. Burberry has not officially explained why, but a worker at Burberry's Castleford factory says it was because of the association with hooliganism. Last year, for example, a gang calling itself the "Burberry Boys" attacked a coach at the England-Turkey match in Sunderland. © Copyright 2004 by United Press International
