Iconic Image: Villanova Cap
The Pope Leo XIV Villanova Cap worn by Pope Leo XIV is white, with the Villanova school’s signature “V” icon. It was a gift from the National Italian American Foundation, presented during a meeting at the Vatican. The image of the Pope wearing this hat created an interesting contrast with the traditional papal attire, causing excitement and lively discussion among the online community.
The gesture was met with a strong response from the Villanova community, with many expressing pride in seeing an alumnus of the school become the pope and still hold a fondness for the school. Some social media commenters compared Pope Leo XIV’s joy at receiving the Villanova cap to his reaction to another gift, a Chicago football jersey from US Vice President JD Vance.
