Ed Hardy Caps Capitalized On The Tattoo Trend Of Today
Ed Hardy caps are just one of a long list of items available from the Ed Hardy clothing line. The inspiration for Ed Hardy caps and clothing came from the "King of Jeans," Christian Audigier and his belief that the work of the "Godfather of Modern Tattoo," Don Ed Hardy would be able to be marketed and sold as Ed Hardy caps and clothes. The line has been successful for several years, but the Ed Hardy caps, made from the basic trucker cap, is the biggest innovation and biggest surprise of the Ed Hardy clothing line which has helped to make it a name that is remembered and sought after by many.
The basic design is the original trucker cap with the mesh in the back and the polyester or cotton front panel. The designs portrayed on the Ed Hardy cap include the designs from the flash, print, paintings, and drawing of Don Ed Hardy. The Ed Hardy caps also bear the Ed Hardy logo to show the cap is a real Ed Hardy cap.
When most people think of trucker caps, it reminds them of farmers and truckers and the dirty hats that they often wear. But, Christian Audigier has changed all of that with his line of Ed Hardy caps. There are four basic types of caps offered. The basic Ed Hardy cap, the rhinestone Ed Hardy cap, the specialty Ed Hardy cap, and the kids line of Ed Hardy caps.
The basic Ed Hardy cap is an embroidered trucker cap. The designs of Don Ed Hardy all have a mixture of western and eastern flare to them. The skulls and flowers, and the tigers and geisha's of the orient are intricately embroidered on the caps.
The rhinestone Ed Hardy cap has the design printed on the front panel and is then embossed with rhinestones. Some of the rhinestone Ed Hardy caps use large rhinestones in specific places to bring the design to shimmering life, while others have smaller rhinestones that make the Ed Hardy cap design pop. All are unique and beautiful in a glamorized biker kind of way.
To be really special, one needs an Ed Hardy specialty cap. Similar to the basic Ed Hardy cap, the design is embroidered on the front panel; however the design does not stop at the bill, but flows down on the bill and is embossed with chains, studs and rhinestones. The specialty Ed Hardy cap is exquisite in its beauty and originality.
It is not a wonder that celebrities such as Madonna, Brittney Spears, and even the squeaky clean Disney Channel Jonas Brothers are wearing these Ed Hardy caps. The Ed Hardy caps may be made from the general design of a trucker cap, but through the vision of Christian Audigier and Don Ed Hardy and are far cry from the trucker caps of yesterday. The Ed Hardy caps are bringing the hat back to the modern era, with an exciting new twist.
