Hella Tight x Del "Bombay" Fitted Cap

Hella Tight does another solid collaboration with classic emcee Del The Funky Homosapien of the Hieroglyphics crew.  The Bombay fitted uses black melton wool for the crown and leather fabric for button and visor.  The front features the well-known Hieroglyphics Bombay, 3-eye logo, appliquéd in 3M reflective. The overall look of this cap comes off very crisp and clean especially because it has no eyelets. In conjunction with the release of the hat Del worked up a new song released today called "Tha Bombay" which is available for free download here.  Cop the 'Bombay' fitted exclusively through Hella Tight online.
