Design driven brand RVCA releases this stretch flat brim cap. The cap comes in an all grey melton wool fabric with fuzzed RVCA front embroidered letters & VA on the back. This comfortable cap comes with a black sweatband & taping. This & other RVCA caps can be found through Active, skate spots, & the RVCA site.
FVF - Full Versatile Fit Caps from Reebok
Here are pics of Reebok's new FVF wool caps. FVF stands for Full Versatile Fit - These caps are built like traditional wool fitteds but with stretch. These alternate caps are very comfortable & made with spandex wool. They also have a flex sweatband that fits a large range of dome sizes. As you can see, the first wave is very basic & straightforward. More styles are set to release this year. This cap style allows Reebok to put a more "fitted" look into areas that normally wouldn’t carry true wool fitteds. Maybe we'll start seeing these on NFL Sunday sidelines sometime soon? More pics & info on places of availability will follow soon.
Puma Ferrari Felipe Massa Cap
The latest Puma / Ferrari Felipe Massa cap. The Ferrari F1 Race Team will have Felipe Massa & Kimi Raikkonen for their 2007 line-up as Michael Schumacher stepped down last year. Puma now releases this flex adjustable performance cap celebrating Massa & company. The cap sports the Scuderia Ferrari Marlboro logo (Formula One racing division of Ferrari) on the front, the Brazilian flag on left side, & Puma logo on the right. The cap is made of a cotton polyester blend to give it stretch with a adjustable back strap. What I like about this cap is the cut & sew features, the visor, white side vent panels, & the contrast piping that follows the shape. Sure to see this one on the track you can pick it up now at Puma flagship stores.
G-Star Urban Military Hat
