Nostalgic ’90s Kids Will Love This Pizza Hut-Inspired Bucket Hat
The best part? It’s reversible.
Pizza Hut knows a thing or two about pizzas, and now, the brand can add fashion to its list, too. On April 5, the pizza giant launched a new bucket hat in collaboration with the creative culinary collective Chain — a big deal not just because the bucket hat trend is still very much alive, but also because the reversible headpiece features an iconic design inspired by the pizza joint’s signature red roof on one side and the famous Pizza Hut Tiffany lamp on the other (IYKYK). The limited-edition item won’t last forever, though, so here’s how you can get your hands on a hat before they’re gone for good.
The new item, called the Hut Hat, will make ’90s kids feel extra nostalgic for those after-school trips to their local Pizza Hut. If you’re looking for a little pop of color to complete your ‘fit, the red side of the hat, inspired by the iconic Pizza Hut red roof, features a simple bright red design and the classic Pizza Hut logo on the front. But if you really want to show off your stan card, you can flip the accessory inside out to reveal a pattern that’ll hit you right in the nostalgic feels.
Inspired by the eye-catching Tiffany lamps that hang from Pizza Hut’s ceilings, the other side of the Hut Hat features a red and white checkered pattern around the top and sides, as well as a stained glass design on the rim with the Pizza Hut logo in black to complete the look. It’s a near-replica of the well-known light fixture — so much so that it almost looks like you’re wearing the actual lamp on your head.
The Hut Hat launches online on April 5 at 12 p.m. PT for $35 and is available while supplies last. It’s unclear how many hats will be up for grabs, so you’ll probably want to snag yours sooner rather than later just to be safe.
According to a Hut Hat press release, the collaboration between the two brands started when a Chain Instagram post about how much the beloved lamps resembled bucket hats went viral, and the rest was Hut history.
“Those Pizza Hut Tiffany lamps are some of the most iconic pieces of New Americana design,” Chain co-founder Nicholas Kraft said in a statement. “They elicit such joy and fond memories.” Now, you can wear those feelings of nostalgic joy on your sleeve — or, more accurately, your head.
