I had to know what zubaz is or was. Here's a link:

Now I know and you will too.

shants 02-07-06 01:39 PM

i mean, i can make absolutely anything. i'm working on some applique-type ****, too, so that i can go far over the ****ing top. that doom hat is going on the chopping block, too. i just put it on for the picture. i'll get measurements soon.

Tmax1 02-07-06 01:44 PM

It really is a cool hat and I would as well as I'm sure others would, wear one. Let us know.

p.s.- I'll take one of the spokecards if yo have any left over and lying around :)

ditto. The first hat looked slightly dennis-rodman-esque.. :) Probably just the angle/color however.

I think a tweed version would kick ass as well.. or corduroy. :D The DOOM one also kicks ass. Damn. Now I want to make one and do some stenciling on it. Or stencil/silk-screen the fabric before cutting it.. that would probably be easier. :D

humancongereel 02-07-06 02:21 PM

meh, i just couldn't see myself in the first one. "nicely done, good craftsmanship", i thought, "but not for me".

SpiderMike 02-07-06 02:22 PM

Nice job Shants!

Would the corduroy cap aid the swooshing sound as you blast by others? :D

looks like they keep getting better. how many panels are they?

invicta 02-07-06 08:04 PM

I have the same amp as in the first zuba pic.... sweet cap shants... Im still partial to the mapei....what i would give for a full team kit... it looks like four panels, handstitched or machine?

shants 02-07-06 08:25 PM

4 panels. i can do 8 and 3, too. i'm going to come up with a pattern for a 3 panel tomorrow. 8 is really awful and too "beanie cap" to me, but i can do them.

Joe Dog 02-07-06 09:04 PM

I like 'em, too. Post your site when you get it up - I'll buy one. It would be great to get a hand-made original for a change. Good luck with it!!

i made this goofy hat last night from a fairly thin cotton (yeah, it'll breathe) and an old doom (crust as ****!) backpatch that i had lying around. it doesn't sit as deep on the head and has a smaller bill than the other that i posted yesterday. it's not lined and is more like the type that i'll be generally selling in the upcoming months, because it's more suited for warm/hot weather. yeah.

that's ****ing cool. Can you make me a hat out of a flux of pink indians backpatch I have lying around?

they went 02-07-06 09:52 PM

doyou put anything in to keep the brim stiff.? my girlfriend has been tryign to make them but she doesn't like the brim

jonb 02-07-06 10:00 PM

i hope the ones you sell for the general publc sit deeper and not so shallo wlike the doom one :/ my ears are big and must be hidden.

screamingveg 02-07-06 10:26 PM

If you need/want to use a better camera to get better shots of your hats when you put em up for sale, let me know. I've got one, and I'm literally a 30 second ride away from you.

shants 02-07-06 10:30 PM

yeah, i put stuff in the brim... jonb - i'll probably be making a set of hats that are very similar to the doom hat in general, but i am planning on doing mostly full custom work, which would allow for deeper hats, etc.
