Everyone, I have been thinking about offering some custom leather patch Jeep hats. There are a ton of Jeep hats out there, so I tried to come up with something different. One is a laser engraved leather patch of the original Willys Overland Data Plate and the other is a Jeep Girl. These are a couple of practice hats, so they are not perfect but it gives you the idea. Not sold on the "vintage/distressed" hat style yet, I have a couple other styles on order to try as well. Hoping to be able to price these in the $20-$25 range.

The distressed look doesn't do anything for me...in hats, guitars, jeans...anyone want a distressed '97 Ram? Runs well, looks like....

Maybe just my generation, but the image on the Jeep Girl hat isn't something I'd want if I were a woman...

The Willys patch is interesting.

Even when the Yugo was brand new it looked distressed.

I like the idea of a hat, but that Jeep girl hat is a big NO for me because I don’t like the image at all. I like a hat with a soft-looking material, but not distressed.

As a female, I would not wear the Jeep Girl as it is right now. Just my personal preference. But, put a grill on there and we might be taking:like:

The Willy’s hat is a nice design.

I'm not sold on the distressed look, but I do like the Willy's patch. Being of the wrong gender I'll let the ladies here comment on the Jeep Girl hat. Good luck on your venture.

FCA has almost everything involved with Jeep trademarked it seems. so the grill etc. I probably can't do or I will get a cease and desist from them. Kind of skirting it a little by having the silhouette attached to "Jeep". So the argument could be made that it is all one image and not the word … which may or may not fly.

Swap out a mountain silhouette for the mud flap girl, and you've got the same concept for legal. I think it would sell well too. I'd buy one depending on price.

And since I'm not one to criticize without offering a solution, here's an idea of what I'm talking about. Please excuse my less than stellar photo editing skills, but I think you get the idea with this.↓
