PN-0062 - Papa Nui - Army Denim Hat - Indigo

[Oaktavia]

@Giles That is pretty cool the cook gave you some to dry and try to grow next year. I had a Carolina Reaper (may have been Scotch Bonnet, I can't recall) plant for a couple of years that yielded more peppers than I knew what do to with. I ended up drying and crushing them up with a mortar and pestle to make a seasoning powder. Good thing I wore a mask while doing it.

No worries about the specific type of denim comparison. I was mostly curious about how these hats will fade and evolve. Bummer to hear about your misfortune with your two other hats.

@Giles I like those a lot. Reminds me of my welding cap. I'd love to find me one of those.

This hat is super nice! Mine came in the mail yesterday. There is a beautiful texture and color to the denim itself. Crazy constructional stitching everywhere! I can already see variations in the indigo- this hat was made to fade. I will post photos when the sun comes up higher. XL was a perfect fit for my big ol' noggin'.

@Oaktavia good to hear you like it. Mine was stacked, but now on its way after placing an order for a pair of jeans for my son. Looking forward to seeing the hat in person and posting pics.

[Oaktavia]

@Bums_Fan heck yeah it will be fun to document our progress and see how they fade.

Missed out on the XL size. May i ask when will it be restocked?

[Alex]

Not unless it is returned

[Oaktavia]

This hat rules!

@Oaktavia Don’t think I’ve ever seen as much denim on one person, cool as just need an Iron Heart X Birkenstock collab now for the 21oz indigo Bostons

[Oaktavia]

@DeeDee85 haha even my tshirt is dyed indigo. I'd wear the shit outta some 21oz Bostons.

@Oaktavia Curious how this hat's coming along. I always keep a bucket hat bungeed to my motorcycles to protect my bald dome from the sun when the helmet comes off. They're just cheap Amazon ones but they get super gnarly faded, so I was thinking "why not get a denim one?!"

[Fadez]

@WhiskeySandwich I bought one too. They’re totally worth it. I wanted a bucket hat for a while. Looked at the adidas ones online. It just hasn’t been sunny enough to wear this yet. I’ll be rocking it hard when I go to Vietnam. It’s a perfect width of the brim where it covers a lot of space but isn’t too wide. You won’t regret getting one

[Oaktavia]

@WhiskeySandwich I have a few bucket hats I buy from the beach and from breweries down here in NC. Brought my Papa Nui one with me this week while we are down here now. I can post photos, I have thrown it in the wash a few times after wearing it a lot. The from is pretty long compared to some bucket hats so they flop a bit but that is the way of the style. Totally recommend picking one up if they are still in stock.

Above is a photo of me wearing it earlier this month. I can post closer up ones with details later.

@Oaktavia looks like a lovely denim, so neppy in that light

[WhiskeySandwich]

@Oaktavia very cool. Thanks for the pics. Looks sturdy and like it takes on some character. I might need this for the bike lol

[Oaktavia]

@T4920 yeah man neppy for sure, it's a cheery medium blue hue too, I love it.

[Oaktavia]

@WhiskeySandwich get you one!

[WhiskeySandwich]

@Oaktavia I just may! just realized the 'sweatband' is indigo dyed....does it crock onto your head? I'll surely be sweating in this and I shave my head....I'm a little apprehensive about having a blue ring around my head... lol

@Oaktavia roping potential 10/10! looking forward to your updates through the spring/summer
