G-Star Raw Bronco Knit Cap
G-Star Raw always seems to come through with a good reason to own another military inspired, knit hat. This piece is not necessarily new in stores but is definitely a good hat to equip you for low temps. Below is G-Star’s Bronco knit cap with visor, also known as a peak knit. This cap combines basic rib texture with a cable insert going around the entire crown. As usual, leave it to G-Star to add staple upgrades, such as a quilted nylon insert on the back with zigzag stitch. The front features a GSR woven label and cool, shiny Tyvek application on the back. You can cop yours at most G-Star flagship stores and official dealers.
Award Tour 'Haiti Relief' Beanie Hats
These dope pieces are officially sold out but we still wanted to showcase them here on UA. Award Tour connected with Good Wood to create custom pins to upgrade a basic knit into a special item and donate all proceeds into relief efforts in Haiti. The approach was clean and offered a tight color selection of burgundy, olive, navy, and heather gray. For most that missed out, Award Tour is following through with some tees to continue the support that release this week. Follow the Award Tour blog for updates on all proceed details.
