JConcepts Forward Pursuit hats

JConcepts intends to start the new season with a fresh outlook while continuing a ‘Forward Pursuit’ in the RC industry. The team will be donning a fresh leather patch hat in 2022 thanks to a fresh new graphic design from the central Florida based company. Hats are everyone’s best friend, especially with a total of 4 different variations available. When it comes to the leather patched logo, the lightning bolts release from the centre of the design, stirring up quite a bit of emotion. The hard circle boundary allows plenty of flow for branding, factory push, and calendar racing year. Of course, World Champion wording signifies the ultimate success. The 4 hat styles include a black or grey flat-bill panel and black or grey/white round-bill mesh.
