Porsche Cap

Hello all,

I can not find my favorite baseball cap.

After much thought (2.001 seconds) I've decided to go with a Porsche cap this time around. Do you guys know of any that do not scream PORSCHE. Its just not me to have my hat emblazoned with a 6 inch Porsche crest. If anyone has any ideas of where to look for a understated Porsche cap I would appreceate it.

Pictures would be good, I am kind of lazy tonight.

I have a similar one to dj's. Mine is cream colored with dark blue lettering "PORSCHE" across the front and very small lettering around the brim/edge of the hat in white letters. I got it as part of my birthday present over a year ago. Sorry, I can't seem to get my picture downloaded.

They have plain color Porsche hats with the word Porsche on the edge of the brim. I opted for the red Cayenne hat, because I like the way it looked. Just go to the Porsche website and look.

Merry Christmas!

looks like a summer hat and a winter hat.

My custom version...

I wanted something specific to the 986, but couldn't find anything I liked, especially iin a light colour.

I also liked the way one of the Cayenne hats looked, with the stylized silhouette.

So I PS'd the Boxster outline and had it added to one of the stock caps. At the same time I had "986" added to the side above the stock "Porsche" lettering.

Check out the photos

Gary, how about a cap in the color of your choice and just add a Porsche or PCA pin to it? I have found nice crest pins at various car shows and I just got a real nice one this past spring that is clutch back and measures 5/8" wide by 7/8" long.
