Fall!

Oh man!  This has been a crazy summer for Cap-sac!  We are moving into fall and are super excited to do this with our new fancy line of apparel and fall colored Cap-sacs!  Our personal fave is the Cat in the sac T-shirt as it is, well… a cat in a sac.  Hope everyone is enjoying the transition into fall!  Talk soon!

Our super rad LA blogger fills us in on her 4th with Cap-sac!

Well my 4th of July technically started on a boat, but apparently the boat party had started, rocked out and ended before we got there at 2 am because by the time Dev and I got there (cap-sacs resting in our bags for their big day the next day), the boat was docked, the booze was drank and people were going to bed or actually tucking themselves into sleeping bags on all flat surfaces around the boat. Not our kind of party. We left and went back to the house we were staying at for the weekend where I tucked myself in with as many red vines as I could fit in my scroungy hands (and mouth) and went to sleep. Its been a good night if you fall asleep while feeding yourself candy, in my book at least.

We woke up and it was the 4th of July. Happy Birthday ‘Merica!

We headed back to the boat, with a pit stop to grab more booze than we could actually carry. Luckily we came up with a genius plan to lighten our load…playing chug your beer on the walk there. It worked well. We got to the boat, threw our cap-sacs on and set sail. Or actually started the motor. But we were on a sailboat so it was kind of like sailing. After a few beers and a bottle of champagne I could have been flying and wouldn’t have noticed the difference.

Everyone looked pretty amazing in their cap-sacs and various other neon accent gear. Breaking it down to electronic music care of DJ Thousandaire. And wearing pink fake mustaches. Not sure where they came from but they were awesome. Most of my friends had never seen cap-sacs before so they were all pretty stoked to put random shit in the fanny packs on their heads. It was an amazing day. And then I found some tinsel. When I drink, I think the alcohol reacts with my body in a way that makes me magnetized to tinsel. I always seem to find it. And once I find it, I wear it. This time I danced with it first. Then wore it.

Full disclosure, I don’t know how to swim. I should have mentioned this earlier (to you and…um…everyone) but its kind of embarrassing to be 27 years old and not know how to swim. Its especially embarrassing when you are 27 years old on a boat with all your friends and you are too scared to go in the water because you don’t know how to swim. Luckily for me this problem was also easily solved. Life jackets! They go great with tinsel. My outfit was complete. And practical. Once I finally got duded up and ready to go swimming (tinsel, lifejacket and cap-sac) the plan changed. Instead of swimming we were taking the dingy to other boats. Great. Well I wasn’t taking my outfit off so I guess I was boarding boats as is. Once I got on the random boat we boarded I realized I was “that girl.” I didn’t want to be “that girl.” I really didn’t. But I was. I guess we hung out and took some pictures. I kind of blocked this part of the day out. Oh and we also saved a boat that was sinking. I’m almost positive I had very little part in saving this boat, but I was on the dingy with the guy that helped save a boat so basically I am a hero.

After the boat we wore the tinsel to the bars, got low to Too Short, drank some Mad Dog and shotgunned a beer with a pretty sketch, hopefully not but probably homeless dude and went back to the boat. The cap-sacs came back on and we had a rave.

Fast forward to the next morning. I wake up shaking with bruises covering most of my body and my cap-sac on. Happy Birthday America!

This weekend we are having a rubiks cube themed party. You start out wearing a bunch of different colors and by the end of the night you need to be wearing one. The cap-sacs are invited. Blog and pictures to follow…

Oh snap it’s July! Brown Derby + Cap-sac blogging fun times in LA!

Busy June people! Cap-sac has become the sponsor for The Brown Derby series!!!  We are excited about this.  We just saw their version of ET and it was Superfantastic!!

Oh and whats this, a blog entry!!  Woot woot!  Cap-sac fan Meghan F has been writing about herAdventures in Cap-sac’ngin Los Angeles, below is her first entry!!!  With photo essay!

It all started when I got the call from my roommate, “They came! They came!” I knew exactly what “they” were and was beyond excited that “they” came. “They” were Cap-Sacs.

I live with two roommates, one who introduced me to the whole Cap-sac scene and another who really quickly got involved so when the package got here we were all pretty excited. Naturally the first thing we did when the caps arrived was take pictures of us opening the package and putting the cap on. Dev was excited because they were awesome. I was excited because they fit my abnormally large head.

The next thing we did was wear them. Constantly. It was amazing how useful they were around the house even. I’m the type of person who leaves their phone in each room they go into and then can never remember the last room they were in. Problem solved with the Cap-Sac. I always knew where my phone was, zippered into a pouch on my head. It was weird though when I got my first phone call and thought my head was vibrating on its own.

After that we took the caps for a spin on the bikes. I live in Venice, California where there is a boardwalk (and a sidewalk, and a street, and and apartment complex next to your house) full of freaks so I worried that the cap-sacs would not even stand out. My fears were totally unmerited. The first time we rode bikes with our caps on we stopped to grab a beer. Typically I wear a messenger bag when we ride to hold my stuff but this time I didn’t even need it. I was glad not to take it with me so I wouldn’t even look like I had somewhere to go or something to do that would necessitate a full bag of stuff to take with me to do it. When we got to the bar, I got carded (even though I live a life that would make you look 40 at 20, I still look 19).  I unzipped my cap and gave the bouncer my ID. After we discussed the fact the bar had a C rating…according to the guy C meant clean…he commented that our caps were awesome.

When we got upstairs, our hats were recognized before we were. Well actually our caps were recognized and we weren’t. But whatever. A few people knew what they were. We were automatically cooler than all d bags and their drunk girlfriends. It felt good.

We had a few beers, enjoyed the sun, enjoyed the fact that it was 2pm on a Friday and we were outside and just relaxed.
We biked home and got ready for the night. We were going to an Air Sex show. Think air guitar but sex. It was basically a bunch of unattractive dudes making the faces and going through the motions of how they get down. Basically what I have been trying to avoid seeing all of my adult life. Good times.

My cap-sac went unnoticed through the show basically because it was dark and what was going on onstage was a train wreck. It’s hard to compete with a dude acting out his fantasy of having sex  while the theme to Mortal Combat is playing in the background and he is mouthing every word (including choreographed fist pumps to MORTAL COMBAT).

So yeah, I left. I was going to meet my friend in a different part of the neighborhood so I told the people I was with that I’d just catch a cab and meet up later. I put my cap-sac in my purse and went on my way. I don’t know if you are familiar with LA but I was walking down Sunset Blvd. in Echo Park looking for a cab. Even cabs are scared to go there. I did not catch a cab but I did get mugged. My first mugging. A small small man, I will admit this now but at the time I would have told you he was 6′5 with Arnold arms, approached me with a knife and told me to give him my purse.  Being an amateur muggee I asked him, “What did you say?” Again he said, “Give me your purse.” So I gave it to him. Even though I outweighed him by 50 pounds and had 5 inches on him, I was not about to argue. I threw my purse in the street and ran. I had my phone in my hand so I was able to escape with that. I called a friend and got a ride to his house. Once I was there I realized what exactly was now owned by the small man in what I vaguely remember being a red leather Michael Jackson jacket…my debit card (cancelled), my ID (old address, expired in a few days), almost fully used lip gloss, a red bull, half a balance bar and my CAP-SAC! He stole my cap-sac.

Damn little man with a pre-occupation with Michael Jackson fashion. I also realized that if I would have kept my cap-sac on and had my belongings in it that I probably would not have gotten mugged.

You live and you learn and I learned I live better with my Cap-Sac on. Luckily I had another Cap-Sac waiting for me at home and I could continue on with my adventures in my Cap-Sac. Next up is 4th of July on a sail boat…Cap-Sacs at Sea…

RIP Blue Cap-Sac. I hope you and mini-Michael are happy together.
