This week's Fresh Fitted Friday post marks the eleventh time I have shared a cap from The Clink Room, which is fitting as this Sandpipers hat was chosen for the "eleven pipers piping" lyrics in the English Christmas carol "The Twelve Days of Christmas" as tomorrow is the eleventh day of Christmas.
You might be saying to yourself, "sounds great, but today is the tenth day of Christmas." To which I have no good reply other than the last time January 4 fell on a Friday was in 2019, and I did not have this hat then. The next time the days align will be 2030, and my current Christmas spirit is too strong to allow me to wait until then to share this hat with you folks!

| Sandpipers are a common bird where I grew up in Virginia Beach so this hat speaks to me on that level first and foremost. I also have an affinity for for many aspects of Scottish culture so the only thing that could make this hat better is if it incorporated baseball somehow! |

| The red undervisor here is sweet although I wonder if a green and red plaid version was considered. |

| Of course Clink Kong in red embroidery is looking great as it matches the undervisor. |
If you'd like to check out some of Clinker 40swords’ other designs, you can do so by following this link to other hats they produced with The Clink Room. The "Sandpipers" hat is my first from 40swords, but it will not be the last as the artist's designs are appealing to me, especially the "Roamin' Romins" character, which has been released in a few different iterations thus far.
This week's Fresh Fitted Friday selection is not going on the Trading Block however please don't hesitate to reach out if you want any other cap from that list and you are willing to part with any of the hats on my Wish List.
