Katy Craft Lim, OD, is an outdoor sports enthusiast, but she says that she found that there were very limited options for women for caps, and they often didn’t fit quite right. She took matters into her own hands and began researching women’s skull sizes and conducting market research. She launched VimHue, caps engineered for women, in 2018.
