Just tossed a bunch of my old trucker hats that were pretty salt stained. Anyone know of trapping company logo hats? not the low profile ones so popular now. I'm talking the ones you see from the 70's/80's. Not sure why but those are the most comfortable imo.

That's the only kind of cap I will wear. I got lucky and a buddy gave me a whole case of camo ones. When one gets too worn I just grab another one. People around here probably think I've been wearing the same old hat for twenty five years. lol

Minnesota trapp line products has a trucker hat

https://www.minntrapprod.com/Minnesota-Trapline-Trucker-Hat-Gray-and-Black/productinfo/MTP%2DHAT%2DGB/

I run into the problem that very very few of the one size fits most hats , fit me I end up ordering XXL hats online.


America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

Tried that. The foam front on the hats dont like the dryer and when I've let them air dry, they get a little mildew smell to em. They're usually $10-15 so it's not worth it. Plus washing them leaves them deformed.

And if there’s something not on there that you might like I could be able to help you. I’m trapping pretty heavy now though but it will slow down in a couple weeks.

I got a nice Bridger traps company hat from MN trapline products that I really like. Also have a neat one from northernmancraft that is great too. I wear these hats all the time.

Money cannot buy you happiness, but it can buy you a trapping license and that's pretty close.
