Exclusive "X" Fitted Caps from X-Large

Here are pics of brand new X fitteds strictly available only from XLarge Japan. Using the common New Era 5950 model, these caps remind me of the 40 Acres & A Mule joints that Spike put out back in the early 90's. Five colorways are available including the classic white crown, black visor & black front X. Check XLarge for availability on the web or here in the states.
