Ask and you shall receive – boys, I know you’ve been yearning for more male content and it’s coming your way (though I know you all quite thoroughly enjoy the female-centric readings). I came across this hat awhile back but I love rehashing things from the past (yeah, a pleasant downfall – love it). Kim Jones is a contemporary artist known best for his controversial performance and sculpture art (well, which artist isn’t really). This particular see-through hat (which is an absolutely hilarious vision when a guy is looking through the hat-bill-slot) is available in fairly obscure retail distribution. Where you ask? Eliminator, that’s where.

  • no, seriously?! A cap with a hole?
    Why not for the artistic idea, I can understand… but why did he try to sell it? :-)

    it’s kind of hilarious, have to give it strong points for originality??


  • franck

    Ok for the originality. I love art projects which remove the utility of objects or give to an object an unexpected function, and this one is a very good example. So it’s a nice concept and a good realisation, but seriously, will you wear it? ;-)
