TONAL WEIRS...

















These ones are a bit different, eh? Like the subtle sensible older brother maybe.
In contrast to the usual bright, bold and zany colours we decided to do a couple of really, sensible, stealth subtle colour combinations this year. The usual 'zigzags' are so tonal they are almost invisible, but we think it works well. These'll look nice with your expensive coats.
Well we've got two version, stealth blue and beige and as always limited numbers produced!

WEIRS...



















Tomorrow is the next Weir on offer. This one is (like the forthcoming boots with Veras) inspired by Robert DeNiro's Michael Vronsky and deerstalking steez. Thankfully no deers were harmed in the making of these hats, with Mountaineering vibes and the great outdoors, this is one of our personal fave colours of this year. As always there's only 50 and they'll go dead quick, that's the story of the Weirs. 
The Black Ark one will follow this, release date for that one will be confirmed in the next few days. 
AND there's one release exclsuively sold by the Sock Council on Friday so check it out. TC

THE COLOURFUL MCMURPHYS







Sounds like an Irish folk band that title doesn't it? Well it's not, I mean it could be who knows? What it is, is the 2nd wave of our McMurphy releases, these being the 2 Tone Red and Blue and the 3-colour Red, Blue and Yellow, which go well with our Walsh trotters and of course the Trango jacket that inspired both. 
These are all made in England and limited in numbers as always. Online Tuesday 7pm TC

HAPPY NEW WEIRS...























Happy New Year, Happy New Weirs. As said at the tail end of 2014, we'll be back with hat season in full throttle. The first hats of this brand new year go online on Wednesday at 7pm (GMT). As always, very limited production of 50 hats per colourway, them's the rules as a result they don't hang around and far more people miss out than get them, that's been established by now, so as we say fastest fingers first. Exclusively online at shop.casualco.com   













So what's the inspiration for these two colourways then? First up we've got the Red, Brown and Blue - as you know colour ideas for these come from all sources, this one though, pretty much a combination of trying to do something we've not yet done. If the Vronsky is our Sierra Designs Weir, this is our vintage Powderhorn or Norrona one, old skool rambling vibes! After all, the whole point of these hats is a nod to the great outdoors.




































AND so to this one! 
Yep that's right, it's a 'Stoney' colour combination for this one! 
Inspired by the Black, Yellow and Green of the original button off patch. This will look nice with your dead expensive shiny jacket. Lots of interest in this already, we're bracing ourselves for another massive Twitter headache, when they're gone at 19:01:01. Brace yourselves. TC
