The Ampal "Scorpio Cord" Strapback Hat, a hat as tough and resilient as the scorpion itself. It's a narrative of a vision quest, inspired by the iconic imagery of the Southwest's rugged scorpion. The hat's design originated from a unique story: while on a quest for the Ramblin' Rose, a swingarm chopper, the idea of a scorpion rose design came to life. This vision, initially etched onto the gas tank, has now been transformed into a wearable piece of art, thanks to the collaborative effort with CHZ from Italy.
