Estate LA: 0 Degree

Estate just posted teaser shots of this cap filed under 0 Degree. This is as basic as you can get on a cap. This brings me back (early 90's) to when I would pick up blank fitteds on Jamaica Ave. (Queens) for $10! The back embroidered star plus green / red colorway got me thinking about the obvious brewery! Stay posted for the official disclosure from Estate.
