Fitted Hawaii just got in 2 new styles from King Stampede. The one below is a real nice style dub "The Pigpen" which draws inspiration from The Grateful Dead's founder Ronald “Pigpen” McKernan signature headband.

HUF at Fitted Hawaii
Fitted Hawaii recently posted pics of new wool fitted caps from HUF. These very basic caps come with a NYC subway token inspired HUF logo. Before bent Metrocards there were tokens that donned a die-cut Y between the N & C. The NY Knicks later adopted this ligature look as a secondary logo mark that they still rock today. Now HUF draws from this idea repping HUF SF & NY. The caps are now available at sunny Fitted Hawaii shop in the below colorway along with black & white, & navy & royal combos.
