Spike-Trimmed Caps

The Studded Hat Brim Designs by Ivory Jar are Rocker Chic

— March 18, 2013 — Fashion
With a unisex design that is flattering on both guys and gals, the studded hat brim designs from Ivory Jar Clothing feature tough pointy studs along the underside, adding a flash of punk style to the caps.

From the side view, the seriously sharp spikes look like shark teeth coming down from the under brim of the hat, creating a dangerous vibe that says "don't mess with me or my style." Sports logos are definitely not everyone's thing and a plain hat could cramp someone's style if it doesn't have enough edge to it.

These hats have just enough metal infused into their hat brim design to be edgy and tough, but are still subtle.
