Peep Bun B’s fitted game right here! Shot last night at the Tupac Amaru Shakur Center for the Arts before his performance celebrating Tupac’s birthday.
All weekend long, folks have been updating their twitter statuses letting us know they’ve picked up their LA x ATL fitted. We’re both flattered and encouraged by the support in our hometown! Thanks Tweeps! Thanks so much for making this release a success. We’re going to give that love back by releasing more heat in the future. Stay tuned… you won’t want to miss out.
Ted’s headed back to Borneo to continue the work from when he went overseas earlier this year and the complimentary Estate LA 5-Panel cap that he’s wearing in this photo is going with him. It’s pretty cool to realize that in a matter of 5 days, that cap will have traveled from Los Angeles > Atlanta > Brooklyn > Borneo.
I just went by Standard on Peachtree to see how things were going and I caught @RyanAcker pushing their last two PROCESS x Estate LA caps on the phone, drinking a Whynatte, and wearing a Streetlocal tee. I had to snap a pic. Good things happen when you keep it local. Everything in this pic was created right here in the good ole U.S.A.
Here’s a cool pic of our latest collaboration with Estate LA which is on sale now. The Estate crew has the caps behind a glass case, next to what appears to be a signed pair of Zoom Kobe IV’s. Fresh!
We woke up this morning to an overwhelming amount of online orders and I even saw a few people picking theirs up at Standard today. We only have 50 caps in Atlanta and 50 caps in Los Angeles. Make sure you grab yours before they’re gone.
Visit the PROCESS Online Boutique and get FREE SHIPPING (Domestic) for the month of June. You can’t beat that guys!
We’ve teamed up with Estate LA again to produce this fitted hat for our PROCESS line. It’s a merging of West & East coasts by locking-up the “L” from the LA Dodgers and the “A” from the Atlanta Braves. The cap will come in 2 different colorways: Purple & Gold (Lakers) and Red & Black (Falcons).
It’ll be for sale on Friday June 12th at the Estate LA store in Venice, Standard in Atlanta, and wearetheprocess.com. As an added bonus, we’ll be including a complimentary USB wristband with every hat sold containing MP3s “Goin’ Back to Cali” by Demun Jones and a secret track with 8 Ball of 8 Ball & MJG.
Also, on the 12th, the PROCESS website will be getting a makeover… stay tuned.
This Saturday, FN Socials, Christys’ Hats and Freshiam.net present Hat Trick at Halo Lounge. Christys’ Hats will be providing you with some of the finest hats and a photo booth for some photo ops. Sounds by DJ What! and 2 local favorites, J Sol & Apple Juice. Also, Midnight Socialite will be there to take your picture, so dress proper. There will be giveaways from Christys’ Hats and of course PROCESS, so come early. Doors open at 10.
rsvp@fnsocials.com for no cover before midnight.
Yesterday, a special package came in the mail from Quintin, a new hat company owned by some of our friends on the west coast. What sets them apart from the norm is that they specialize in fitted 5 panel caps, thus eliminating the need for a pesky adjustable strap and delivering some class to the 5 panel category. Their first wave of releases will take place on May 2nd, kicking off a summer of weekly releases bearing collaborations with many heavy-hitting design teams (the line sheet looks amazing). We’re honored to be included in this succession of releases and are currently tweaking the final details on the first PROCESS x Quintin collaboration set for later this summer.

As Georgios and I were leaving Philips Arena last Friday night, we received a phone call from one of our buddies who was reaching out to us on behalf of the one-and-only, Usher. As crazy as this sounds, he’d previously seen a few PROCESS pieces at Black Sheep in Charlotte last fall and wanted to pick up a few fitted caps and tees directly from us.
It is a huge compliment for someone with his star-power to show support for what we love doing. And it was important for us to deliver the order to his studio in person. He was super-nice as we chopped it up about “the PROCESS” and a few of his future endeavors. Plus, he gladly let me snap a pic of him in his new PROCESS x Estate LA Fitted too!
Since we’re on the subject… I know this is a re-posted song, but it’s one of my favs from the past year:
Name:
Bear Fight Hat
Aka:
Trouble
Website:
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Bear%20Fight
Where are you from?
Originally Russia, but I spent a good bit of time in China being made as well. Then I ended up in Ashville, NC where I did nothing but inhale a lot of second hand smoke. Finally I ended up in ATL thanks to Reed Elliot who rescued me from the hippies.
Who do you work for?
Anyone that is willing to put up with me really! Most of the time you can find me anywhere around the Ponce area of Atlanta. El Bar or The Local. I’m on a mission to spread Bear Fight magic across the world. So basically, anywhere that serves Guinness, Baileys, Jamison, Jager and Red Bull is where I can get down to business. If you come to ATL, you better come find me. We’ll “do work” together.
What are your Current Project(s)?
Getting people drunk out of their minds, getting party kids sick, making fun of douchebags, making fun of hipsters, being-a-hat-and-wearing-a-hat at the same time, jamming out to DJ Cristo Disco on Thursday and Friday Nights, and world-domination.
Who would you love to work with?
Anyone that’s Irish, the dude from Man vs. Food, Zangief from Street Fighter (Russia represent!), kute gurlz, Winnie the Pooh (he’s kind of my hero), and anyone interested in a par-tay!
If you had to give all your sneakers away to charity except for one pair, which ones would you keep?
Paws down, my Nike SB Three Bears Dunk Highs! But i don’t really have feet considering I’m a hat.
What’s on your iPod right now?
Bear vs. Shark, Minus the Bear, Grizzly Bear, Panda Bear, Grumpy Bear, Seabear, Volcano the Bear, Art Bears, Message to Bears, Bear Slayer and the Keep it Hood Mixtape by Slugger.
What’s your Favorite ATL food?
My favs is definitely the Shepard’s Pie at Bookhouse. I couldn’t kill a better meal.
What’s your Favorite ATL hangout?
Thats an easy one, El Barz on your head!
What are your Pet Peeves?
People who think they can do Bear Fights and then throw up 10 seconds after trying one, people that don’t finish their Bear Fights, Care Bears (amature shit), people who spill drinks on me, people that try to make requests for music at El Bar, people that give me dirty looks for having a good time, people that call them “Bear Claws”… They’re called “Bear Fights”. It’s not that hard… get it right… and especially loud pandas.
Shout outs?
Big shout outs to all my homebears back home in Russia, I miss you guys! Also, shout outz to everyone that made me. My drink-pushing homies in TX. Aaron for pushing Bear Fights in Chi-town. Pablo and Megan in Barcelona, taking Bear Fights internationally. Big ups to the Party Wolf. StreetLocal crew! Thanks a million to Rosa for giving me a hook to hang on at El Bar. Reed for rescuing me from Ashville and bringing me to El Bar that night and introducing me to the EC/Process boys. Without them I wouldn’t be as popular as I am now and I would probably just be sitting in a costume store wasting my life away.
Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, & Black… the only colors a designer needs to make every color under the sun. These EC x New Era Custom “CMYK Atlanta” Caps will be available in the Epidemik Coalition Online Store shortly. Stay on it!
More pics after the jump.
