So why is it called a trucker hat? The history of these mesh-backed hats goes way back to the seventies when the style was made popular by, you guessed it, truckers. The front panel of a traditional trucker hat was made of foam with a silk-screened design. However, we moved it up a notch and replaced the foam front with a fine-stitched durable cotton blend, and added a touch of class with a royal blue "ASA - Since 1940 -" patch.
