The midway cap.

Hat of the day! Two weeks ago, we traveled down south to visit the homies at 5&Adime, they revealed the midway cap. Here is the insight on this piece. The design is inspired by the U.S.S. Midway, a US Naval aircraft carrier that was stationed in Yokosuka Japan for 17 years and subsequently returned to the San Diego Bay for decommissioning. A tribute to the US Naval Carrier, only 72 pieces were made in the US with 3 different colorways. Don't judge its appearance as a ordinary cap, small details including the japanese sun under the brim..genius! 


5&ADime hooked up with 7Union to make this remarkable hat.
