Jennifer M.’s Hat: J18

This hat is representative of our late son’s legacy. Our 18-year-old son, Jearan, tragically passed away in an accident last year, and we’ve been working to carry out the visions he had for his vehicles, as he had big ideas for these. While reminiscing on the phrases that our son would often say, one was ‘Darn Tootin’ – the meaning is to speak the truth. Jearan would unapologetically speak his truth and tell it how it is, living his life to the fullest. He would love to be outside, listening to music, and always up for an adventure. This sparked the logo I designed to work towards creating a line of a plaid clothing items with this patch logo. It’s to represent our son, to always be yourself, speak your truth and live every moment. “Fast Car” or “Where the Wild Things Are” play every time we’re in our car, so it means the world to us that this hat be showcased on Luke’s Category 10 wall. 🎶💕🧢💕🎶
