Gents,

It has taken Streak a lot of time effort and money to develop the design for the hat/cap. As has been stated, its not economically nor logistically viable at this time to go down the road of a bucket ht due to sizing issues..

I will be placing an order for the cap when its available. I dont need to worry about protecting my ears, as they were burned off by the Mrs years ago, and the neck has been blasted thru with withering looks as I cant hear so good for some reason.... :grin :grin :grin

I wasn't having a go at Streak, he has done a great job with the caps. I'll probably even buy one. However generally I avoid wearing them because of the skin cancer issues, particularly up here.

Gents what I think we will do is this.

We will stock the caps in the shop as a standard item, let me do some work on the bucket hats, maybe I can sort a once off run or something, let me think about a nice simple way to do this.

I've got a couple of those blue caps with the red checks too Sabie.. just a couple of different logos on the front.   
I avoid caps because I've had so many things chopped out of me I try to keep the sun off my face, ears and neck as much as possible.  I'd be happy with an OzStoc patch and stitch it to the front of a good quality sun hat.

Hey BBear, I thought yours was orange? Your a fully paid up member of the orange army aren't you? And I say that with admiration of what you guys do... :thumb

I too was not having a dig at Streak, I know how hard it is to try to satisfy everyone but I, for one, won't wear any baseball cap, they look silly and don't protect properly. That is why I was very pleased when the topic first went up and talked about hats, not caps.

Streak, when you come up with a design/price for a bucket hat I will but one or two, size 6 7/8ths, please.

Sabie, why would I, as a pom, know what the cloth round a slouch hat is called? This is not part of my history or upbringing, so I really have no way of knowing that it even has a name let alone what that name might be. I did my time in the British Royal Air Force which I joined in 1968 and we didn't wear hats like that, we wore a beret or a peak hat for parades etc.
Cheers,
Paul

I think it has got to the stage of seeing what is practical to do  on an ongoing basis (caps) due to sizing and stocking requirements and perhaps a few custom hats if that is possible for Streak to do.  As I would carry the head covering on the bike for use with helmet off, a cap for me.  It would even replace my Boags and Coopers caps.


Gents,

It has taken Streak a lot of time effort and money to develop the design for the hat/cap. As has been stated, its not economically nor logistically viable at this time to go down the road of a bucket ht due to sizing issues..

I will be placing an order for the cap when its available. I dont need to worry about protecting my ears, as they were burned off by the Mrs years ago, and the neck has been blasted thru with withering looks as I cant hear so good for some reason.... :grin :grin :grin
