Footbag Hats

Post by PegLegHolly »

Made a hat for Tom Mosher a few years ago... and got great feedback on it.

I got a custom request from Matt Cross... so I figured I would show it off and see what the community thinks. These are a lot of fun to make, and I really enjoy making them specifically for friends.

Just finished it today, and should be in the mail in time to reach him before Worlds.

Let me know what you think, guys. Not really looking for critiques on my poor stitching.

Haven't sold any yet, these two were gifts. I was wanting more feedback on other moves people would be interested in.

Next hat: Mobius

Some good footbag names:

Gee whizz (gyro whirling inside delay)
Tomahawk :!:
Montage
Whirlwind
Whirl War (not exactly a move name, but terminology for a run filled with intense/unique whirl concepts)
Rev-Up
Ripped Warrior
Xulu Warrior
Spike Hammer
Assassin
Phoenix
Royale

I might want a hat in the future. I would like to call dibs on Assassin, though. :P

but seriously walking around with a hat that says "bedwetter" would be pretty awesome.

other ones:

blazing barfly
blazing frenzy
"blazing drifter" or alternately, "hippy around the world"

or a group of people all with the hat "fairy symposium"


edit: I'm not sure why, but the idea of someone wearing a hat that says "little apple" makes me crack up.

On the topic of Footbag hats, theres a company in Australia that does custom graffiti clothing, including trucker caps. I want to get a hat like this with Footbag as the word:

Actually, whirl war is the name of a specific drill. whirl-pdx whirl rpt (or the other way around).

As for popular footbag move names on a hat, I'm sure "Your Mom" would be a big seller. You know, I wouldn't be surprised if they already sell that hat on the website Ian mentioned. :lol:

pretty awesome hats, evidently have to much time on your hands!!!! (joke)

liking the colour contrast on the yellow better than the black.

bear in mind though, colour choice if you make more. from previous experince from wearing hats in general, when you sweat the salt stains the canvas of the hat, and kinda ruins it after a while (if not washed freq).. mainly more obv on darker colours such as navy blue, forest green, etc.

the reason i bring this up is because shredding is hard ass work when your really going for it, and sweating is an inevatability. may just wanna bare it in mind when choosing your base colour for your hats! other than that, which isnt really anything, there friggin ace. let us know if you start making them to sell.

thanks for the trick names, guys. ill be making more hats in the near future with some of the suggestions.

i dont plan on selling these... mainly because i like giving them as gifts to my footbag buddies. i also dont want to be liable for shit like the base color being white and the hat getting dirty... dirt is character... if it wasnt, then all lavers would stay white forever.
