Rebel8 X Mishka Denim 59Fifty Fitted Cap

Right off the top, I must say this has to be one of the sickest fitteds so far this year!  Both Rebel8 and Mishka are well known to put out tight New Era collabs on their own but they really banged it out on this one.  The R8 x MNWKA Denim 59Fifty features custom embroidered patch applications around the entire cap. The visor is tricked out in leather plus a satin inside lining.  There is also nice tees that connect with this. Head over to the Rebel online shop for yours!
