My Top 5 Fitteds of 2016

This year has had its fair share of great 59FIFTYs; we saw classic logos make their return and some new designs made their mark. Let's take a look back at five pieces in particular; here are my top five fitteds of 2016.

In4mation

In4mation form Voltron this Black Friday as the five caps from their upcoming Formation collection have been unveiled. The Hawaiian brand began teasing the 59FIFTYs on their Instagram page last week, each of which will be exclusively available from one of five different locations.

This upcoming Black Friday the folks at In4mation will be dropping five 59FIFTYs exclusive to their five different locations; Nuuanu, Pearlbridge, Alamoana, HNRS Las Vegas and their online store. Each store will have a hat to represent its synergy into in4mation. Checkout this clip via their instagram page teaser the first of the "Formation Pack" which will be available via their Nuuanu store.

HNRS

This year we have been introduced to some great new logos, one in-particular being HNRS' "Good Fortune" frog. Based on Japanese superstition the frog, kaeru in Japanese, is said to return people or things to a place or origin. Keeping one around will "return" good fortune.

Teased a few months ago on their Instagram page, HNRS are back with a fresh 59FIFTY in collaboration with New Era. The "Good Fortune" 59FIFTY features HNRS' frog logo, which is based on a superstition from Japanese culture. The Japanese the word frog is "kaeru" which means to return. So if a frog is kept in a person's wallet or purse, money will return.

HNRS may be a new kid on the block but with strong links to Hawaii's In4mation and Aloha Army, they are set to make a name for themselves. Recently the store dropped this in-house fitted, the "HNRS Arch" 59FIFTY. The cap is constructed using a black crown and visor, with the logo embroidered in raised and direct stitch. A red New Era flag appears on the wearers left and a secondary HRNS logo is included in  white on the rear. Limited sizes available now via HNRS' webstore http://www.hnrs.bigcartel.com/.
