“While the promotional photos online look crisp and clean, the physical item you get in person clearly shows some cut corners in mass manufacturing”

Thickness5%

“The cotton material is thicker than I anticipated for this price point”

Color3%

“More importantly, the dye fixation is highly unstable; the very first time the cap gets a little damp from basic forehead sweat, the red pigment immediately bleeds directly into the white stitching, permanently ruining the clean look of the front panel”

Wrinkles1%

“The only hit against it was how it was folded up which caused a crease that I can't really figure out how to remove”

Print Quality1%

“The lettering is slightly uneven if you look closely”
