Design Features
Front Panel
Wool appliqué smoking heart artwork.
Layered wool construction creates depth and tactile presence against the structured cotton twill body.
A heart that burns slowly — not sweet, not innocent.
A quiet symbol of love that lingers long after it should disappear.
Side Panel (Left)
Appliqué patch reading:
“ART IS A CRIME.”
A declaration stitched directly into the structure.
Art positioned not as decoration, but as disruption.
Side Panel (Right)
Raised embroidery reading:
*“Design Within Rich.”
Measured spacing and controlled execution —
structure holding the chaos in place.
Back Panel
Multi-color raised-thread Gothic embroidery spelling:
“FUCK.”
Language used as raw material rather than provocation.
A word stripped of politeness and turned into form —
part of the brand’s ongoing exploration of the raw language of art.
Strap & Hardware
Full-grain Argentine leather strap with solid brass buckle.
Vegetable-tanned and intentionally untreated to age naturally.
Designed to develop character through wear, not repetition.
Construction
Structured 5-panel silhouette.
Flat brim profile.
Vintage cotton twill body providing durability and a firm hand feel while maintaining everyday wearability.
Series
Part of the ART IS CRIME SERIES —
a collection exploring the relationship between language, rebellion, and artistic expression.
Unique Finish
Each piece is produced in small batches.
The combination of wool appliqué, multi-color raised embroidery, and patch elements creates layered texture across the entire cap.
No two pieces are perfectly identical —
a deliberate balance of craft, imperfection, and intent.
Designed and crafted in Los Angeles, USA.
Unisex Representation
We transform art from static displays into dynamic, wearable fashion, designed to suit every body type with our inclusive, unisex styles. This philosophy not only celebrates diversity but also empowers wearers to express their unique narratives through fashion. Each garment is crafted to accentuate personal style and identity, blurring traditional gender boundaries and inviting everyone to share in the art of fashion.
Details & Care
This product features natural imperfections such as wrinkles, scars, and scratches, which highlight the unique beauty of the material. Each piece is distinct, enhancing its uniqueness. To extend the lifespan of your garment, please handle it with care. Avoid direct exposure to sunlight, as it can cause the fabric color to fade.
Hand washing is preferred.
If using a washing machine, wash cold and do not tumble dry.
Instead, hang to dry in a shaded area.
If machine washing, please use a hat washer cage to maintain shape.
