George Washington warned that political parties would destroy the republic. He called the spirit of party a threat to liberty and a path to despotism. This hat was made for those who tend to agree. "The spirit of party... agitates the Community with ill-founded jealousies and false alarms, kindles the animosity of one part against another, foments occasionally riot and insurrection. It opens the door to foreign influence and corruption, and thus the policy and the will of one country are subjected to the policy and will of another." — George Washington, Farewell Address, 1796 The Independent Eagle is a throwback to the original American mascot, before party animals took over. Stitched in red, white, and blue, it’s a quiet tribute to national unity over factional nonsense. This camper-style cap has a low profile and nylon strap clip closure.
