Bad Empire Trucker Caps: The First Merch Drop

July 22, 2026 · Bad Empire

Bad Empire started at Booth 33 with flooded watches. It's not staying there. The first piece of merch is live — a run of embroidered trucker caps, and it's the opening move on a wider apparel and gear lineup that's coming out of the vault over the next year.

Three Caps, Three Editions

  • "OG":The original. Black six-panel build, the Bad Empire crest embroidered clean across the crown. The piece that started it.
  • "LiV2CR8":Live to create. Same structured build, exclusive LiV2CR8 embroidery — made for the ones putting in work nobody sees yet.
  • "Bro":Say less. One word, stitched clean. No further explanation offered or needed.

What's in the Build

Every cap in the lineup is the same solid foundation — a structured six-panel crown with a mid-profile fit, hard buckram front panels that hold their shape, and a breathable mesh back so it doesn't sit heavy. The Permacurv visor comes with a matching undervisor and breaks in fast instead of staying stiff out of the box. Closure is an adjustable plastic snapback, so one size covers most heads.

Made to Order, Shipped Fast

These aren't sitting in a warehouse — each cap is produced print-on-demand and shipped straight from production, which means no dead stock and no guessing on sizing runs. Order it, it gets made, it ships. Simple.

What's Next

The caps are the first drop, not the last. Diamond Blend Coffee is next in line, and Bad Empire Breeders — the dog program — is coming back after time away. The empire was never just watches. This is the start of the rest of it.
