Cool Hunting
When The Fader recently went about putting together a series of ultra-limited New Eras designed by artists who had been in the magazine, the first artist that came to mind was one Noah Lennox, aka Panda Bear. I'll admit, I'm not the biggest fans of fitted hats myself, but I do love listening to the musical creations of Panda Bear. Being that Panda has been known to rep his Maryland roots via headwear for a while now, it makes perfect sense that he has incorporated not only the MD flag into his custom lid but also the throwback style of the early '90s Orioles.
Well, we've got our hands on one of these limited caps (only 80 exist) and we're giving it away to one lucky reader. Just send an email to pandabearfaderhatcontest [at] gmail [dot] com with "Cool Hunting" as the subject, include your hat size and we will randomly pick a winner by 13 February 2008, 11:59pm EST.

From the award-winning restaurant design team Avroko comes an equally adept collection of "uniforms" for the playful womenswear label Mona & Holly.
