Mike is back with some interesting new accessories for spring. First, we have four different colors of a new camper cap. There’s also some fresh Wayfarer style sunglasses with a certain infamous print on them. Three guesses what it is!

This version of the camper cap features reflective ink on a black cap. Nothing too flashy, that is until you’re shining a light on it.

It would be a travesty for an MJ inspired piece to not be made available in a black and red color scheme. I’m still not totally sold on the front panel. The print looks a little odd by not extending it around to where the brim meets the cap itself. It wouldn’t mesh with the paneling, so maybe that wouldn’t work either. I can say that the large 23 hit on the side is great looking, especially against that red.

An Aqua/Grape inspired colorway is a nice addition, but where’s the Laney/Military Blue love? No? Please?

Sometimes (most times) subtlety is the best way to go, especially in terms of headwear. Croc skin, satin, neon, etc all have their place, but the versatility in this cap is something to keep in mind.

But we’re not done yet! Mike created these shades in conjunction with Blinde in the traditional Wayfarer style. Each pair includes the hardcase pictured and a lens cloth, not to mention a serious attention to details. Check out the etched Mike logo on the lens!

While I’ll have to see what these are like on an actual face, I really like the concept. this really isn’t so far removed from a tortoise shell pattern that people will think you’ve been scribbling on your shades, but it’s unique enough to draw attention. Expect these sometime in August of this year.
