AMERICAN NEEDLE established a factory in Chicago, USA in 1918. Along with New Era, it is one of America's leading hat brands. In 1946, they supplied game hats to the Chicago Cubs of Major League Baseball, and later to all major league teams. They now have official contracts with major American sports teams (such as the NFL) and provide hats with high design and functionality.
Designed by the world-famous Australian hard rock band AC/DC. The washed body has no core, and features a shallow crown and curved visor in a classic style.
