It’s a rare opportunity to bear witness to true innovation. We can proudly say we have uncovered the holy grail for Fitted Cap Connoisseurs everywhere; a device that will help shape, size and maintain fitted baseball caps. STRICTLY FITTEDS gives you the first look at the FITTED PRO.

We were given a tip about an Atlanta-based company developing a consumer-grade cap restoring device. We were able to uncover some details about the release of these revolutionary product. Sources speculate as early as this Christmas, their introductory piece, the FITTED PRO BALLER will be available for purchase.

In anticipation we are preparing shelf space for at least three units, one for the house, one for the spare room and one for the office. Stay tuned for detailed reports as this story develops.

Caviar is the Black Gold of the Caspian sea. The top quality eggs of the Sturgeon fish fetch insanely high prices and have long since been a staple of lavish lifestyles. SSUR’s Caviar Cartel NEW ERA 59Fifty gives a taste of luxery in a fitted baseball cap. The highlights on this piece include Caviar Blue pin-stripe and satin underbrim on a cotton cap. The text CAVIAR CARTEL appears on the left and right sides in a raised metallic embroidery. An alternate colorway of Charcoal Gey with Silver metallic embroidery will be released as well. Look for these to drop early ‘08 at SSUR’s flagship location and select accounts worldwide.

The CAVIAR CARTEL is also an animated series that is currently being developed by SSUR. The characters are much darker versions of well known fairly tales.
