Aspen Base Operation Trucker Hat (circa mid-1980s)

$160.00

From the mythical ops team that never existed—but everyone swore did. Aspen Base Operation was whispered about like a ski patrol side-hustle or a Cold War side-channel. This mesh-back, corduroy-front stunner is embroidered in hunter orange, likely to be spotted in old bar photos from the Red Onion or post-race nights at Boogie's. Fit is high and structured, condition is remarkable, and the story? Well, you write the rest every time someone asks.
