Kapital - hippies, Japanese farmers and post-apocalypse survivors

[peachfuzzmcgee]

2007 Piece I think but still love this era of camp blanket inspired jackets they did. Currently for sale on Trefac Japan.

why you do this, mustn’t spend but 20k ain’t bad.

edit: luckily it’s probably too small

Won't fit. If you look on their website they have measurements

チノ　老人と海HAT

43132

The biggest I've seen their hats is 60 cm which is 7 1/2

Ah, bummers. Thanks!

Does anyone know if the Old Man & the Sea bucket hat fits big heads (size 7 5/8 & larger)?

Its listed as one size.

Don't have the bucket, but the standard cap version varies greatly between denim and chino. The denim one fits my big head like a dream, but my green chino one is less deep and has a smaller circumference so it sits higher and isn't so secure. I've tried different styles on numerous times in Japan and at Cotton Sheep and the difference between the fabrics has been pretty consistent. Can't say with 100% certainty, but the denim bucket might fit you while the chino one in the link above won't.

thanks! i live near cotton sheep. I'll swing by and try some on. I always forget they get a good amount of kapital stock

i also have a massive head and echo the comments re: denim vs 'chino' material; the latter definitely fits smaller, unfortunately. as an aside, TCB make similar but more traditionally repro designs (e.g. daisy maes) in a variety of fabrics up to XL. great quality for the price, too.

Hey guys I got this a couple months ago, but lost on how I should style it. Not sure about lower half, and this Cottle hoody is the only thing I can think of that looks good with it up top.

Hard to say with that angle and cropped pic... But I think it looks pretty good right there if that's the look you're going for. I would imagine that this would go with most pants/shoes, as long as they're not too slim fit.

Question of personal taste of course, but I wouldn't roll back the cuff to flash your watch...

The arms are too long otherwise,

I feel like the piece is more streetwear and don’t think it fits in wearing denim and boots.

So, you kinda answered your own question there... ? Go with what you like. After all it's Kapital, just mix it with whatever.

Dude that ******* bandana jacket stands on it's own. Don't worry about anything else. Just like, wear some **** and then throw that on over it and rock it. Unzipped/unbuttoned cuz that's how cool people do.

I think the principal way to wear that jacket is to be like "I got a kap bandana jacket and it's ******* awesome". And then like, throw it over absolutely anything and be like "look at my ******* awesome bandana jacket". Don't worry about making things mesh or match colors or whatever. Just wear that awesome jacket.

Exactly this.

If you're worrying about how long the arms are on that jacket, like, maybe it's not right for you. That's not the point. If you're worried about is this sizing/silhoutte on or off bye 0.5cm like, **** dude kapital is not like that. Just like, relax, wear it cuz it's awesome, embrace the not right fit of it. Be cool.

I apologize, i've had a couple beverages tonight so I think perhaps my tone and posts were maybe too direct and blunt. But that being said, I think they are also still 110% to the point correct.

edit: I regret nothing.
edit: not 100% to the point correct, 110% to the point correct.
