We’ve had our share of heartbreak over the years. We all have, right? Well, we’ll never get over the sad day we learned that Legend Hats/K-Products closed its doors by selling their business to Staples. Our beloved “tall” style was nixed, in favor of heartless, halfwit “Git-R-Done” camo and NASCAR fan hat models. Faux frayed edges, fish hooks, goopy embroideries and whatever else. To be as blunt as possible: NO WAY.

We tried to place one last monster order, got shut down, and proceeded to enter a dark period on the DDC factory floor where we started “whittling down” our remaining stash of hats on hand. One by one, our colorways sold out, orders were turned back, hearts broken and countless spirited customers left frustrated.

So we tried to source them ourselves. And of course, hat vendors will promise you the world! A number of samples came and went, never quite hitting the mark. Too short, too curved, too chumpy, whatever. More darkness. And, we WERE NOT gonna make them overseas. They just didn’t have the same feel. In desperation, we tried and tried a ton of places. None did the job.

We’re just thankful to be making them again, and offering the hats we love so much at a fair price.

These beauties are the classic cap style that has been outfitting farmers, truckers, little league teams, contractors and the occasional carny for many years. Cut, sewn and assembled in the United States, the DDC Factory Floor Issue Action Cap is an item not to be fucked with. Field-tested all around these great United States, these hats are the real deal. Like we’d settle for anything else? Hell no.
