With the way the Miami Heat are playing they certainly don’t need any extra hype but that is not stopping MIA retailer Shoe Gallery and The Hundreds from releasing this limited edition collaboration. The snapback features the Shoe Gallery logo on the side and a Miami Heat inspired Hundreds logo on the front. The cap is exclusively available at Shoe Gallery and Hundreds online store.
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.

Cali-based brand The Hundreds, has released some caps to top your summer fashion off. In keeping with the LA style of the company, the brand has designed both snapbacks and New Era fitteds that reflect the culture of the Golden State.
A few of them are simply patterned with bright colors, while a couple others have a more specific theme in mind. There’s a retro-Raiders influenced hat as well as one that reps in Warriors colors. Whether you’re from the West or not, there should be no thinking involved, these are the caps to rock this summer. –Nadine Graham
