MIDDLE DISTANCE "BURGULAR CAP" (Black)
Detail:
The "Burglar Cap" reinterprets the caps actually used by the Scottish Police from a unique perspective.
The fabric uses deadstock cotton twill from a historic British apparel manufacturer (Italian fabric). It has a firm texture and an elegant appearance, with a unique charm that comes from materials stored for many years.
It features a three-dimensional form with a 9-panel construction, an external heat-transfer brand logo, and an internal Tyvek care label. While eliminating unnecessary embellishments, the brand's aesthetic is embedded in every detail.
The name "Burglar" carries humor towards those whom the police pursue daily. Starting with a Police Scotland cap that serendipitously came into possession, the entire story has been elevated into this product.
It was produced by a long-established factory in Canada. They have inherited the manufacturing technology for hard peak caps, which are now rare in the UK, at a high level, and their craftsmanship is among the best in the world.
With its background as a police uniform and a modern reinterpretation, this item is where utility and humor, history and creativity intersect.
It's essentially a jet cap, but it has a good depth and a very balanced feel.
