Salty Crew Bruce Retro Trucker Hat
A Salty Crew Snapback Built for the Water Crowd
The Bruce Retro Trucker is a classic men's snapback hat from Salty Crew that nails the retro surf look without sacrificing everyday wearability. A structured 6-panel construction holds its shape session after session, while the mid-crown height keeps the profile clean and proportional. The standout detail is a circular woven damask patch on the front panel featuring the Salty Crew shark graphic and the brand's "Find Refuge in the Sea" motto, a nod to the salt-soaked culture the brand was built on.
Construction and Materials
The front panels combine cotton, polyester, and nylon in a blend engineered to hold structure and resist the wear that comes from a life spent near the water. Mesh rear panels keep airflow moving so the hat stays comfortable during warm South Florida days on the dock, the beach, or the boat. The plastic snapback closure delivers a wide range of fit adjustment so one size works across most wearers.

About Salty Crew
