Colnago White Men Cant Jump Cap

Sometimes we come across things that we just won’t sell. I mean we just can’t.

One such item landed on our desk earlier this week, a certain Colnago cap.

Now any die hard Colnago fan out there knows that this is no ordinary Colnago cap. This is the style that was worn by Wesley Snipes in the 1992 movie White Men Can’t Jump.

 

Wesley Snipes Colnago Cap

Wesley Snipes wears the Colnago cap in the hit movie "White Men Can't Jump". The cap is now a rare collectors item.

Agreed, it’s not the sexiest of cycling caps we’ve come across, but when there’s a certain aura over just one cap we can’t resist but hold onto it, slip it onto the front of the mantle piece, gaze at it for a while, and keep it there.

Recently we have been in contact with the Italian cap factory, who have confirmed that sadly Colnago would not agree to reproduce any more. With that being said the cap that landed on our desk earlier this week is definitely not for sale, this is a collectors item this particular collector won’t be putting a price tag on – sorry guys!

    Hey man, I'm searching for this hat for a friend of mine as a surprise — I doubt you'll have much more info on it, beyond what you typed up in this post — but I'm trying to exhaust all options and you're as close as I think I'll get to the exact hat he's looking for. To drive the point home further, this is an actual quote from a facebook post from my friend Bill last week “If anyone wants my undying, unconditional love, please buy me the Colnago cycling cap that Wesley snipes rocks in white men can't jump.” — Any info can help, I'm pleading.

    Thanks in advance.

    Sorry Greg, as far as we're aware Colnago only made very few & they refuse (despite our persistence!) to make any more. The only Colnago caps we can get are the World Champion stripes ones in our store. In the meantime you can tell Bill you found one, he just can't have it :) (hehe sorry couldn't resist a bit of dry sarcasm!)
