Today’s Gear Breakdown: Skalop’s Wharfside Cap - Seemingly Standard, but Beautifully Nonconforming With a Closer Look
Simple at a glance— the details are what really make this piece special: the corduroy, the extra stitching on each of the six head panels, the classic Skalop logo on the side, and of course, the arrowed buckle closure. I personally love the material choice of this hat, the wales of the corduroy add so much more than the conventional canvas for brimless caps. Speaking of wales, I love how they are sloped at an angle on this piece, unlike most corduroy brimless caps whose wales are vertically straight. This utilization of incline not only prevents the convergence of lines that form peaks along the seams of standard corduroy brimless caps, but also creates a sense of uniformity in the panels of this hat.
This piece, like the majority of gear in the Splatoon series, changes color depending on the users’ most recently used ink color in battle! It’s fun to experience the different characters of each colorway.
