New Caps

Just posted a whole buncha new caps to the Etsy shop, including this Black Sabbath T-Shirt cap.

Just a reminder, we're shutting down shop for custom orders on Thursday December 1st, but will have 50+ caps in our Etsy shop right up till Christmas.

The Meandering Match

We just sent a couple of caps off to Jameson and Laurel, aka The Meandering Match, who are doing a 4262 mile ride across the United States next summer. They are looking to raise $1 per mile they ride to donate to a great cause.

They plan on working with a non profit named Bikes Without Borders. Check them out here. They provide bicycles to local health care workers as well as bicycle ambulances to rural towns in Malawi, Africa. Malawi is a very poor nation and there is a huge incidence of death to many people there including pregnant mothers because of the inaccessibility of health care.

Check out Jameson and Laurel's website here. They are currently in Vietnam, and their blog is pretty entertaining for anyone who has a case of wanderlust like myself.

*As we don't currently have a physical shop, this is a great opportunity to try on our caps and get one of your own without the wait time and extra cost of ordering a custom cap online.
