Quintin Twenty Ten / McFly 5-Panel Fitted Cap

Quintin is hitting us off with a preview of their new 5-panels dubbed the Twenty Ten, which are inspired by the Marty McFly Hyperdunk sneakers.  Quintin lays out the foundation first by color-blocking the cap in sky blues, slate grays, and white. The front panel is treated with a sublimated print and gradient Q logo. Side panels feature embroidered lines arranged like the fly wire lines found on the kicks. Inside the cap is a lining, which is laced with the same sublimation print found on the sole of the Mc Fly's. Like the sneakers, the Quintin Twenty Ten 5-Panel fitted will be produced in limited quantities. Available next week through Quintin and official stockists.
