We’re designing a summer cap for Seven. Finally. After we immediately sold out of Seven’s first cap venture, we knew we wanted to offer something for the summer.
Design Mission: Develop a lightweight summer cap that represents Seven Cycles. Custom made exclusively for Seven Cycles in North America. Taking cues from Seven’s last cap – the Three Season.
Highlights of this beauty include:
Custom made in North America exclusively for Seven Cycles- Made of very lightweight breathable summer linen so it’s a great companion on hot summer rides. It’s black, white, dark green, and a hint of brown. All of Seven’s favorite colors.
- Two Seven logotypes – reasonably subtle and classic
- Two sizes available, and an elastic at the cap’s back to fit just about anyone.
Design Team
- Co-Conspirators: Chantal Boxer helped with style feedback and the voice of reason – as always. Krissy managed the suppliers. Skunk got them onto the website.
- Seamster: Red Dots Studio
Project Timeline – In Reverse:
July 2 | They’re up on the Seven site!
June 22 | They’re back from the embroiderer. Now onto the Seven website.
June 14 | Ooops. Really, off the the embroiderer. Photos soon.
May 24 | Caps arrived. They look great. Now off the the embroiderer for a few special details. Hoping to have the new cap on the Seven site by mid June.
March 8 | Finalized the design and material. Placed order.
Feb 28 | Red Dot sent us some fabric samples. I’m liking the green/white/brown pattern. Super lightweight linen. Perfect for summer riding.
February 16 | It’s going to be a lightweight linen cap – since it’s for summer. We want it to be the opposite of our 3-season cap.
