BILLYKIRK BANDANAS

You might not be the 80′s rocker type who wears a bandana and crushes cans of Natty Light in dimly lit bars while you wearing a biker jacket. That said, these bandanas from Billykirk look so good you may just rethink your entire style aesthetic. Designed by Jon Contino (CXXVI), the 100% cotton bandanas are available in two different styles and are made in the USA. Each showcases a bit of Jon’s hand lettering style and looks good even if it’s just hanging out of your back pocket and not on your head like you’re waiting for the bar to play some Motley Crue.
