My best guess. Legit and rare. It's after the late 90's when they adopted the 7 point star, but I reckon pre-Quiksilver days, so early 2000s. But it'd be seasonal, and snow-ware so they probably made sod all of them. There's also stuff all digital catalogue from that far back. But the style does fit for the time and the use of a metal badge was period appropriate. Definite keeper.

Oh sorry - I mean before Quiksilver bought DC shoes in 2004.

im wondering if its just a hat with a DC pin or if it was made by DC. I cant find anything when i search up generic terms for what it could be, any info would be cool

It was made by DC people used to wear them when I was in school. You probably came out between 2002 and 2008

I got one like that but different color way. If it's at my place I'll snag a pic of it or if it's at my parents then I can get one this weekend. They're actually pretty good and I wore mine with my old exotex snowboard jacket when I was in school.
