about our headwear
In 2025, we’ve refocused our lineup around our original 3 crown silhouettes. The GO, the FST and the TRL serve different needs in terms of fit and spec.
FSTCap: the lowest crown in the collection, meaning a more fitted look. Size: S/M only (56.5 cm head circumference).
GOCap: available in multiple sizes to make our best-selling style fit more heads. Sizes: S/M (56.5 cm) and M/L (58 cm).
TRLCap: the TRL offers the highest crown in our headwear collection. Size: M/L (58 cm).

the term "million miles" refers to the reasonable lifetime of the product. this does not mean your lifetime but rather the lifetime of the materials and components that go into the finished product. we do our best to select high-quality fabrics, materials and components that meet our standards, but even the best materials have a lifespan and will eventually degrade. we evaluate a product’s lifetime by its intended use and frequency of use, not by how old it is.
in some situations we are able to send replacement parts for repairs that can be done at home. if the product is not repairable, we will make every effort to replace a product, but cannot guarantee availability. any limited edition or discontinued product still covered by warranty that cannot be replaced with an identical product will be replaced with an equivalent model in our current collection, based on availability. we may make changes to products and designs in the time you purchased your product and submitted a warranty claim. products repaired or replaced under this warranty may or may not incorporate these changes.
