• UPDATE, those caps and jersey are taking pre-orders now.
    Cap is £10 and jersey is £43, run to the end of this thread to place your order :)
    They look like this:


    So @Cazakstan and I had a little word the other day during the circle line ride and realized we both really really want a no death no stitches cap.
    I thought you might want too ?
    So i drew this first draft.
    I wanted to put some dino action, I went for a first quick draft of what is meant to be T-Rex teeth, but not sure it's recognizable ? I kind of dont want a dino itself, I wanted more subtle.

    But here we go, let me know what you think ?

  • This project is full of win.
    I like the teeth idea, also like the colours

  • Rad. Would bang...etc etc.

    How about swap dino teeth with text and have them on the underside of the peak...like a jaw?
    Just an idea...dont get me wrong, awesome as is...

  • Teeth look a bit like velociraptor claws, perhaps? Dowant

  • I love this! I quite like the writing under the peak, teeth would look good there too though..

  • looks awesome ! I like writing under the peak ~

  • Terrific stuff!

  • awesome! i'm happy with or without dino action as i like the rip/tear on the peak. looks excellent, excited!

  • That's ace! Want. Yuss plz.

  • Looks good!

  • excellent stuff.
    I was thinking about the teeth, and I think on the side is good? because you see them that way on a T-Rex skull, but then maybe they should be arranged so that it's like you're looking at the side of a skull, with them curving to the back and bigger teeth at the front. could even be the same on both sides. does that make any sense... hang on...

  • kinda meant this. not sure if it works. apols shoddy photoshop.

  • rawrrr

  • Ha thanks all for feedback - will have a little refining session, all good ideas. Glad you're into it!

    Do you have recommendations for manufacturers too ? I'm completely in the dark there.

  • Champ sys might be an option, not sure what their minimum order is though.

  • someone on the stylish kit thread mentioned Walz - http://www.walzcaps.com/caps_cotton.html
    the idea of a non-breakable peak appeals... never seen one in the flesh though (only the wool ones), and custom might be a little pricey.

  • Who did we use for the forum caps @Velocio ?

  • How about these guys? Keep it uk based, for tax/import duty purposes?

  • Urban Hunter sorted it for me, though he used an Italian factory for the actual production which I believe is http://www.apis-italia.com/

  • Looks good, I wonder if we could get a sample to see what the caps are like? Min order is 25 though

  • I mailed them and here is how it looks in real life... different, with the fabric...

  • hmm not sure about the mesh fabric

  • Hmm.. not sure about the quality of that velopac one, looks rather cheap..

  • yeah i'm not too crash hot on all of it, that peak too....
    "different" ;)

  • Looks very 'ventilated' not sure why that's necessary on the peak which has plastic in the middle!
