Erneuerte Hulme Cap Benzinblau

The original inspiration? A Richard Davis photograph of Anderson Hinds—better known as ‘Dangerous Hinds’ of the Ruthless Rap Assassins—sporting a Nike cap with an unusual front panel and what seems like a seven-panel construction. A defining image of Manchester’s underground music scene, it felt only right to honour that legacy with the Hulme Cap.
 
Named after Hulme—a place steeped in Mancunian counterculture and creativity—the cap is a nod to the area’s rich musical heritage. From the sharp lyricism of the Ruthless Rap Assassins to the contemporary sounds of Children of Zeus, Hulme has long been a driving force in the city’s sonic landscape. The cap embodies that same independent, forward-thinking spirit.
 
It’s also part of our Gloverall Renewed initiative. With Gloverall Renewed, we're turning these materials into opportunities. Partnering with independent  UK makers, we provide surplus wool and trims along with our technical expertise to create exclusive, limited-edition collections. Each piece carries the legacy of our signature materials while showcasing the innovation of contemporary craftsmanship. It’s our way of breathing new life into materials, supporting local artisans, and offering unique garments with a story—an alternative approach to waste in the fashion industry.
 
The cap’s 7-panel silhouette nods to classic sportswear, while the unstructured crown and gently curved peak keep things effortlessly relaxed. A subtle embroidered ‘G’ sits front and centre—understated, but with just the right amount of character. And, because the little details matter, a slide adjuster at the back ensures a comfortable, custom fit.
