Proceed with Caution....Hats are extremely HOTTTTTTTT!



I love Hothead Originals. The designs are trendy, and this necessary accessory provides sun protection. Now that's fashion sense.

A. Magdalena chats with HOTHEAD ORIGINALS

*designer: Hothead Originals
*uniqueness: Hothead Originals is a custom-designed visor line with a US Design Patent. It is a fashion visor line for adults and children that offers sun protection with style. The brim and headband is custom-sized for more sun protection than the average sport visor. We tried to keep it fun by choosing unique fabrics and colors. The details include a wide brim design, signature pink stitching, hand-selected fabrics and custom details (i.e. zipper on visor band).

What is your hometown ?
*Honolulu, Hawaii

When did you get started making accessories ?
*A few years ago.

How did you come up with the name HotHead?
*We wanted something catchy and fun so we came up with Hothead Originals.

Do you take custom orders?
*We do not customize orders at this time but will eventually offer visors with your name embroidered onto it.

Why did you start making your own accessories ?
*As you know, the sun causes irreversible damage to your skin. Living in Hawaii, we are into sun protection (and style). We wanted a visor for everyday wear but did not find anything to our liking. So, we sat down and started to sketch some ideas. The rest is history, as they say. We worked on it part-time while still keeping our full-time job at an architectural firm. It took us several years to design, patent and manufacture our product line.

Where do you gain inspiration from ?
*We were inspired by "use and look" of our favorite pair of jeans. It was a piece of clothing that was "tried and true" and something that we wore (almost) everyday.

Who are your favorite designers ?
*We love all designers! We especially love unique products that are well-designed and reflect much thought put into it.

Where can we buy your merchandise?
*You can purchase our products through our website at www.hotheadoriginals.com
*We are currently building our "official" website but our current website will take you to our "temporary" cartfly store with Paypal checkout (secured shopping).

Do you have formal training in designing ?
*We do not have formal design training in fashion. Our formal training is in architecture.

How can you be contacted ?
*You can contact us via email at: hotheadoriginals@yahoo.com
or in my space at www.myspace.com/hotheadoriginals

I love Hothead visors. I have one in each color. Currently, I alternate between the camouflage, black denim and black denim/graffiti. I have told my friends about this company and they are also sporting these soon to be hot visors. Very well priced too!
