I'm proud to work with Morin Surfboards on a second hat. This time we decided to feature Josiah's Planer. Some surfboards, including ALL Morin surfboards, are still completely crafted by hand and the Planer is the shapers "paintbrush" - used to sculpt the clunky foam blank into a sleek surf craft.
This specific first gen Hitachi Clark Foam model is lovingly named "Eva Jane" - Eva Jane was Josiah's grandma who before she passed gifted him a little money to help start his shaping career. This specific planer has a storied pedigree, it had been gifted to Alan Gibbons by the Merricks, who used it for years before passing it on to Josiah, who's treasured it since.

Unstructured. Packable. Crushable. Customizable. Vintage out of the box. All Ampal hats are built using our Unstructured construction; a style that allows you to stomp, drop, pack, throw and smash your hat all you want without fears of creasing or destroying it. Built to last, built to custom fit to your head, built like they used to.
In 2020 we decided to develop 2 signature custom sweatbands for use on all Ampal hats - a Navy Premium Chino Twill and a Dk. Brown 3M Tech option. The Premium sweatband is soft 100% cotton Chino Twill with a special blend of layers for comfort and a vinyl sweat barrier layer. We first developed the 3M Tech sweatband in 2013 but only used it intermittently. It's soft, ultra breathable and moisture wicking, and now upgraded with a sweat barrier to keep the exterior of the hat looking clean.
