COMESANDGOES
EXCLUSIVE CAP

The NY BRIM LEATHER CAP for COVERCHORD is a special edition of COMESANDGOES' classic cap. Designed with the image of a “movie protagonist” wearing a sun-faded, sweat-stained, well-worn baseball cap in mind.

COMESANDGOES designer Ippo and I often talk about movies.
Since I haven’t kept up with new releases over the past couple of years, I end up bringing up the same old films every time we meet. At this point, neither of us can remember the actors, directors, or even the titles—we just end up triggering each other’s memories through some kind of strange quiz game.
I’m starting to worry we’ll still be talking about the same films for the next 30 years if I don’t start watching new ones again soon.

Anyway, when it comes to clothing, caps, or shoes, I’m the kind of person who believes things only truly become yours once they’ve developed some character. This cap is no exception. It’s made to be worn hard and aged well, so we pre-washed the cotton parts to give it a broken-in feel from day one.
I just can’t trust a movie character wearing a perfectly clean cap.

We did consider using all-cotton, but in the end went with a leather brim to give it more depth over time.
Even though leather caps are usually associated with fall and winter, we specifically designed this one for summer—when outfits tend to be simpler.
It’s a cap meant to be worn year-round and loved for a long time.
