@ Max Power
Grabbed the Watch Cap last year from SE.
SE declaired the cap on custom patch for only 10$.
Also found the cap here:

You have to call them to order…

This webshop has been always a "mistery" for me…
Was looking at a Buzz winter jacket a time ago. But how the hell to finalize an order with them? I gave up...
Someone here on the forum made any order with HP? I am curious

I have bought a BR N1 and some Sugarcanes from them without difficulty. Give Charlie a call and he will hook you up. If you don't catch him, leave a message. He is very professional and passionate about his goods.

Got the BR A4 Watch Cap today. Customs hit me with 19% VAT, but that was expected. Ordered from Japan over Rakuten, with shipping and VAT here in Germany it was still cheaper then ordering from BR Europe. Oh, and it was in stock.
It startet to snow ealier this evening and I took it out for a short walk. My conclution: keeps you warm, looks sharp but fucks up your hair pretty bad.

My sentiments exactly, but damn it's warm and good looking.

Handwash, to be safe. I just shrunk natural wool socks of my girlfriend to children's size.

How do you guys feel about Labels on watchcaps? I can't decide where on my head I want to wear them, they always look misplaced in my eyes. So I'd rip them off…or would this be considered blasphemy? Is there anything like a historic look where they should be placed (front of the head, back, doesn't matter)?

I simply don't like them, because they spoil the look in my eyes. That was the main reason I went for the WG version. That and that it is black of course.
