For eons, men have had to decide between showing off their freshly cut hair and wearing a stylish hat, putting two brands, Sport Clips and Lids, at odds. Never was this more apparent than the second after a haircut, when men who came into Sport Clips with a hat, would put it right back on, offending stylists. To us, the answer to this rivalry was clear, Clear Hats. On National Hat Day, the two brands set aside their differences, in the name of head fashion, to launch the only hat designed to show off your haircut.
