We were able to source an original 1960s Honda grand prix mechanic's hat to create this accurate replica of the very hat worn by mechanics when Honda made their grand prix debut in August 1964 at the Nürburgring. The original 1960s hat was dark red but we have produced this replica in black. Cotton/poly mix with flocked artwork and mild contrast stitching. The unique, period correct, flex-style closure was accurately replicated as well. The interior materials and construction are also spot-on save for the more practical sweat band. Get your piece of Honda history while you can. Limited availability.

The hat is uneven. The brim is not lined up properly with the rest of the hat.

Smaller than expected, also really disliked the feel of the green felt That felt is way too soft and pronounced against the other Material has made of. ( looks outta place ) Place the felt with the same material that the hat is made of and I think you got a winner.

Honda Racing Replica Mechanics Hat (1964) - Black
Store owner replied: Hi Daniel- So sorry you have yet to receive your order. We did ship it on time but clearly it's been lost by the carrier. We implemented a new lower cost international shipping option but there seems to be some issues. Even though your order may eventually show up and once the package is out of our hands it's no longer our responsibility, we are going to reship your order.
The hat was alright, but was mangled in the packaging... bent bill and creases to fit into a small 8x5x5 box with another hat and shirt.

Honda Racing Replica Mechanics Hat (1964) - Black
Store owner replied: Hi Cameron - Thank you for your 3 star review. Coming from you, this is like 10 stars! Thanks for the feedback on the packaging. This is something that is easy to remedy. If an item is damaged because it was not packaged correctly, we of course will replace it. Contact customer service (maybe try a phone call this time).
I do love this hat! It looks great and the quality seems to be really good. I've gotten compliments on it everywhere I've worn it. There is only 1 downside....the size of it. I guess I have a small head, because it's too large for me. I typically wear a 7, 7-1/8 fitted hat and this is quite a bit larger. However, I like this thing so much I added some sizing tape to it so I can still wear it!

Very well made with stitched on logo. Fits well, shouldn't fly off in the wind!
