So I made one.

When I showed my completed flat brim Whitney trucker hat to a buyer in Yosemite National Park she liked it too. With that a business called HikerSight was born. At HikerSight we like to make hats and bandanas featuring the various mountains of the world in a simple black and white medium. The stark black and white art is meant to be visually jarring. It's meant to make you feel unsettled, a similar feeling when you are looking at a rustic mountain range high in elevation.

The red taped seams are inspired by the colors of the Swiss flag and search and rescue helicopters. Both recall images of mountains in our minds.

The topographic map underbill images are a novel touch that may bring back the memory of trying to find your way on the trail with a map in hand.

I did everything I could to wrap up the entire experience of a journey into the mountains with one product that you can put on your head and feel good wearing it. I hope you like them.

See you on the trail!
