Zephyr Hats: Virginia Edition

This week is the "V" week; and that means the University of Virginia! If you didn't know, we have been going through the alphabet dedicating letters to colleges and hockey teams. Here's what has been cover already: AuburnBYUCUDetroit Red WingsEdmonton OilersFlorida GatorsGeorgia TechHawaiiIowa, the "J" EditionKentuckyKansasLouisvilleMichiganNorth CarolinaOregonPenn StateQuebecRutgersStanfordTexas, and Utah! I will only be covering snapbacks, but you can check out the University of Virginia section on Hatmonster.com to see all their fitted/snapback and curved/flat bill hats!

While these two hats have round brims, all of Zephyr's Superstar snapbacks have square brims now. Incredible raised embroidery can be found on the script on the front, as well as on the Virginia alternate logo on the side of the crown. Other qualities of these hats include a one-colored snap and green under-brim.

This snapback design includes the x-ray of the Cavaliers logo on the front, and the word "Virginia" in a font that resembles an x-rays. This snapback style has square brims, green under-brims, and dual-colored snaps.

Below, the Virginia Refresh snapback, which again has the raise-embroidered Cavalier logo on the front of the crown. One thing you might not be able to see is the dual-colored snap (black and orange) and the raise-embroidered word "Virginia" in the back.

 Right, the Virginia Cavaliers White Upshot snapback, which was part of a Summer 2012 program that Zephyr did. These have cursive script that are raise embroidered, along with related keywords and school logos. One of the only parts to this hat that isn't white is the green under-brim.

The University of Virginia Razzle snapback has a rather dazzling font that is raise embroidered. This snapback design has a dual-colored snap in the back and a raised school logo on the side of the crown.

Left, the Virginia Cavaliers Front Runner snapback; this two-tone snapback design has the raise-embroidered Cavalier logo on it, as well as three background lines, the middle line highlighting the word "Virginia." Besides this, the hat is fairly general: one-colored snap, square brim, green under-brim, and contrast button and eyelets.

Below, the University of Virginia Cavaliers Blockbuster 2 snapback. This script is not raised, but regular; however, the Cavaliers logo is raised. The back has the same regular embroidery as the front and says "Cavaliers." One-colored snaps, square brims, and contrast button and eyelets are among noteworthy characteristics.

 The last snapback design I will post is the Virginia Cavaliers Shadow Script snapback, a two-tone design with the cursive, raise-embroidered word "Virginia" on the front that's accompanied with the schools logo.

One design that I didn't mention, but is worth a look, is the Rally snapback. Be sure to like Zephyr on Facebook, follow them on Twitter, and check out my website!
