Fleeing Giraffe 

We felt this topic was so important we dedicated 4 styles of hats to this issue and we wanted to make sure our youth knew it as well. Informing our children of these issues can make all the difference in raising aware and compassionate children - children that become adults who can break the cycle of the war on the wild. 

While this design is beautiful and whimsical it actually highlights a very devastating truth about giraffes. The tallest mammal in the world which is also peaceful, and Herbivorous (they only eat plants) is one of the most hunted animals. 

Fragmentation, habitat loss and illegal poaching critically threaten three species of the giraffe, Kordofan, Nubian, and Reticulated giraffe.

They are poached for their meat, pelts, bones, tail, and hair. What if you were hunted for your beauty? Would you try and run from it? That is exactly what this giraffe is doing, it is fleeing from the beautiful spots on its pelt. 

Wear this hat and when people comment on how beautiful it is, make sure you tell them the truth of their story.  Thank you for doing your part and educating the public on this issue. The more we know, the more we can help protect them.

More orca hats please! Our family loves orcas and this design is so beautiful. I hope it comes in more teal and blue colors in the future.

We are so glad you love your hat! It does come in teal and blue - via the running hat!! :)

I wanted to replace a hat that I'd lost with a similar design. My old one had a gray mesh back and a teal brim but REI no longer carried it. This one had similar colors and the same design, but trying it on, the teal insert makes the hat fit oddly. If I didn't love the design so much, I would have returned it

Hi Natasha! This hat is a 7 panel hat. The one you previously got from REI was a typical foam trucker. They are very different in style. :) The 7 panel isn't for everyone - it's a bit bulker, doesn't have foam, and wider. :) It's still a great hat! Just a personal preference.

We are an orca loving family and my favorite colors are teal and blue, so it felt like the hat was made for me! Fits well and kept the sun off my face during multiple trail races recently

Ah! Looks like you may have found your favorite hat! Thank you for your support!

Love love the print. The colors are spot on, the contrast with the brim cloth is nice. But my head is too small for this style of hat. I’m wearing it anyway, but the other style hat with a patch instead of full trucker is better for small faces.
