Did you miss out on BCP hats? They're back in the store

New stock of hats in the store, with a few new colors, and some selectively available in Flexfit elastic.

I’ll buy a multicam hat if you make them.

Zane, I’ll buy two if you get them in the flex fit. I love my first BCP flexfit hat, but gotta be honest, I was dissapointed when I got my last hat and realized it was a snap back.

I agree. I like my snap back, but I really like my grey flex fit.

Sorry. In my defense it clearly says that it's a "snapback" in the dropdown control next to the Add to Cart button, as well as in the item description.

I used to be a Flexfit guy, but as a result of my successes, there are no elastic band hats on the market that can contain my head, so I've reverted to the plastic snap closure. Less headaches, literally.

BUT... since it's just a call away, I will add a Flexfit option for you and anyone else who prefers that. Here's what you need to know:

Flexfit elastic band normally comes in 2 sizes: S/M and L/XL, for most Flexfit branded hats. They do make a mesh back trucker in elastic band, but it is only one size. I find that it runs a little tight on my big melon. Let me know what you want, I'll add it to the store, and you can order it.

Everything is set to backordered right now, which is essentially like we're doing a pre-order.

You definitely said snapback, I just didn’t read it and assumed they would be flexflit like the previous. Here is what I would like in your new logo(or the old logo if you still have some). I totally understand if you cant do it, but I would love a couple of these in black and white or gray and white. These are the best hats ever!!! Thanks Zane!

Yeah...it was kind of an experiment so I didn't order a whole lot. Response has been kinda lukewarm, so I'm thinking I was pretty close in my estimate.

Soon. I know I've said this for a while, but this has just been a low priority.

Make sure you're subscribed to the newsletter. That'll be the first announcement they're available..
