Trivia

  • A Template:W (鉢巻, lit. "helmet-scarf") is a stylized headband in Japanese culture, usually made of red or white cloth. It was worn as a symbol of perseverance or effort by the wearer. Hachimaki are sometimes worn by Japanese protesters to show their dedication. Also, Japanese kamikaze pilots in World War II would often wear hachimaki before flying to their deaths.
  • The flower on the Humanitarian's Hachimaki is a Template:W, or cherry blossom, symbolic of Japan.
  • This hat's price was originally listed as $7.99 on the official blog.
