Former Slack Cap - Black

2026 Former Slack Cap | A Raw, Vintage-Washed Essential

Top off your kit with the Former Slack Cap in Black. Far from your standard clean-cut headwear, this 5-panel lid is built from heavy-duty cotton canvas and treated with a technical vintage wash to achieve that perfect "lived-in" grit from day one. Designed by the Former crew to reflect their "reaction to tradition," it balances a structured flat-peak aesthetic with the raw, rebellious soul of the independent skate and surf scene.

Key Technical Features

• 100% Cotton Canvas: A rugged, high-density construction that can handle the salt, sun, and pavement. This durable fabric is designed to hold its shape while softening naturally over time.

• 5-Panel Flat Peak Design: A timeless, low-profile silhouette that offers a clean, modern look. The flat peak provides maximum sun protection while maintaining that classic street-ready profile.

• Technical Vintage Wash: Every cap undergoes a specialized wash process to fade the black tones and soften the canvas, giving it an authentic vintage feel and a unique, weathered character.

• Seasonal Front Embroidery: Features high-density "Slack" seasonal artwork embroidered on the front panel. This high-stitch-count detail adds a premium, tactile layer that won't peel or fade like a print.

• Adjustable Snapback Closure: Equipped with a classic snapback for a customisable "one size fits most" fit, finished with a subtle Legacy woven label for an extra touch of rider-owned authenticity.

Why You’ll Love It

The Slack Cap is the ultimate finishing touch for any lifestyle rotation. It carries the same independent energy as the founders, Dane Reynolds and Craig Anderson, making it more of a statement than just an accessory. If you’re looking for a black cap that masks the dust of a long road trip and fits perfectly right out of the box, this vintage-washed 5-panel is a non-negotiable addition to your gear.
