Swagged-Out Acrylic Headgear

The ADN Snapback Cap Combines Accessories and Urban Styles Together

— June 6, 2011 — Fashion
Turns out cutting out all those colorful plexiglass/acrylic sheets in shop class does serve a purpose as it's evident with the ADN Snapback Cap.

The ADN Snapback Cap comes from New York-based accessory line Adeen who collaborated with jewelry designer CHRISHABANA. So if you've ever had any doubt about jewelry and street wear being combined, then maybe this will change your mind. The brand adds a nice touch of arts and crafts element with cut-outs of colorful acrylic pieces in the shape of the letters "ADN," as well as a charm on the back of the hat. Although it's a simple design, it's certainly something new and refreshing compared to other caps out on the market.

The ADN Snapback Cap is now available for sale at Adeen's official website and the photography is by Peter Williams for Highsnobiety.
Trend Themes
1. Acrylic Accessories - Incorporating colorful plexiglass/acrylic sheets in accessories bodes well for tapping into a younger, more mobile consumer market.
2. Jewelry-streetwear Collaborations - Combining streetwear with high-end jewelry could spur interest from open-minded Gen Z and Millennial shoppers.
3. Artsy Hats - Utilizing cut-outs of colorful acrylic pieces to create unique designs offers a chance for craftsmanship and individuality in caps.
Industry Implications
1. Fashion Accessories - Incorporating more visually interesting materials into accessories could boost appeal to younger shoppers.
2. Jewelry - Further melding high-end jewelry with streetwear styles could expand market reach for both.
3. Crafts and DIY - Highlighting craftsmanship in consumer products may resonate with niche groups interested in DIY and artisanal goods.
