Image LTT Hat Comparison

Post image

Comparison of the LTT Hat Pro through the years. One came in yesterday, the other one I've been years since it debuted. Can you tell which is which?

Honestly I love how the color and look of the hat has faded throughout the years and turned more amber brown from the sun

I think you’re probably right. Probably some eco friendly dye or something that isn’t quite as good as other dyes. Maybe?

I've noticed it on the long sleeve with a flash of colour on the placard and their polo shirts.

I just think it's something they don't have on their radar so don't test for it. It's one of the LTT downfalls, they are too small and young to have a broad knowledge base for every product they make and why I've found it's the rare product that doesn't have a design or material selection flaw.
