What do you get when you put the "King of Jeans" together with the "Godfather of Tattoo"? You get Ed Hardy caps, clothing, and fragrance lines to name just a few items. The ed hardy clothing line has boomed in the past few years and has everything from Ed Hardy t-shirts to Ed Hardy shoes to Ed Hardy hats.
When Ed Hardy clothes line says trucker cap, they really mean trucker cap, like the ones seen on farmers and truckers that are stained and dirty from hard work and sweat. The difference is that Christian Audigier has taken his trucker caps to the next level of sophistication and created something new.
The embroidered trucker caps, called basic Ed hardy caps, portray designs that incorporate the western idea of tattoo with the eastern concept of tattoo. Some Ed Hardy caps have skulls and flowers, while others show dragons and Asian scenes.
The Ed Hardy rhinestone cap has rhinestones to accentuate the design imprinted on the Ed Hardy cap. The rhinestones used are intricately placed on the hats to make it stand out. Large rhinestones are used sparingly but make evening dresses the hat shine. Smaller rhinestones are used more often to make the cap shimmer when worn.
The specialty Ed Hardy cap has the design embroidered on the front panel of the cap. Some of the designs actually flow down on to the brim of the cap, while others have accessories adorning the brim such as chains and sometimes a few rhinestones.
