Attica Jailhouse : Cleveland Cavaliers "Script C Ligature" Fitted Cap
Attica Jailhouse recently produced a custom gem inspired by the 1970 Cleveland Cavaliers jersey wordmark. The Cavaliers entered the NBA in 1970 under team owner and founder Nick Mileti who let the city of Cleveland submit names for the new team, which he then selected from the final five. Aside from the team's original colors of wine and gold, this C captured the main focus of their early 70's jersey. The creative C blends the tail sweep element into a cavalier's hat feather. The felt fabric is hand cut and stitched onto a wool fitted cap. Contact Attica Jailhouse for availability. 
OFFICIAL: NEU SF Fitted & Chaing Gaing Preview
OFFICIAL is debuting their SF logo this spring/summer with much anticipation. Official expects the logo to become synonymous with the brand and are having a hard time containing their excitement over the first two colorways. "We feel like we've captured the essence of what a San Francisco logo should be by incorporating Victorian serifs, generous curves and a subtle boldness that will make us all proud to rock an SF logo. Even for those that don't live in the city, this hat states that the wearer recognizes the qualities and aspects that make SF unique." Official also teases us with a little preview of their Chaing Gaing cut & sew T. A three dimensional gold link erratic pattern of bike chains makes this shirt rill, rill pertinent. Product and lookbook images for SS09 from Official forthcoming.
