Hella Tight recently dropped the 2nd colorway of the controversial yet very popular “Rednecks” snap-back hat.
A play on the Washington Redskins racist logo/name, the “Rednecks” hat’s crown is a lightweight cotton. The front logo is a mix of raised and flat embroidery. The hat features a burgundy satin undervisor, black satin taping and a burgundy satin highlight on the rear inner strip.
It’s available today at hellatight.com and in-store at True in San Francisco.

Official Crown of Laurel’s fall 2010 lineup is decidedly more mature than past lines. The goal of the collection was to have the headwear match the designers fashion sensibilities. They have effectively achieved that goal with a wide range of headwear that should appeal to a variety of audiences. There are snapback hats, fitteds, skullies/beanies, a five panel hat and our favorite, the English driving cap with herringbone earflap overlapping the brushed flannel crown. The collection will be available in stores and here in early September.

The team over at The Hundreds has gone with a concept unlike most other streetwear brands for the upcoming fall season. The seven year old Los Angeles company is offering pieces that pay homage to everyone’s favorite autumn clothes from childhood. This concept is especially strange coming from The Hundreds because how cold does it really get in Southern California during the fall? Despite this theory, they seem to pull it off, from the weathered tees to comfy crewshirts and broken in straight jeans. It seems The Hundreds are just trying to keep us cozy as the temperature drops and the leaves change color. — Nadine G.
