Coming to you in three new colorways is Benny Gold’s signature Doughboy New Era cap. Inspired by Ice Cube’s classic character in 1990s film 'Boyz n the Hood,' these Doughboy New Era caps will be available this fall at select Benny Gold Retailers.
My favorite part of these caps is the buffalo plaid lining on the underside of the cap. Typically this type of detailing is found on the turn back cuffs of men’s shirts or on the underside of the collars. It’s interesting to see the concept applied to hats.
