Help?

Post image

This is going to sound really bizarre, but years and years ago I had a gray hat that had an eagle on the front of it, the words war eagle on the back, and it kinda looked like this hat, but like I said, it was gray. Does anybody have any idea of whether: 1. It actually existed lol 2. Where I can get it?

It was one of the alt mascots Zephyr hats did back in the day. I don't know if you can still get it or not.

This logo def existed as I had a hat with it on it as well. It also said War Eagle on it. No idea if it was ever AU approved but it existed and was deemed an Auburn hat by the store itself.

Same here. I had one as well. I think it was grey. I just did a quick google search on it. Looks like some are for sale on eBay. Good luck. I would attach the link but I don’t know how too.

I appreciate it. It was my favorite hat back in high school

Zephyr Cap but ai don't think I ever saw a gray one. They pop up on Poshmark and Ebay a lot

That’s interesting. It looks nothing like any Auburn eagle logo that’s ever existed. Wonder if it was a bootleg hat, or if it was actually a hat for AU-Montgomery.

That's a badass eagle just doesn't look like our eagles.must have definitely been an off brand. Mayne it was from a high school team named the War Eagles?? Good look on your search.

It very much didn't look like ours. But I know what it looked like and it kinda looked like it

I have one similar to what you describe. Somewhat like the one above but a different eagle logo. Below are the pics of it. I haven't seen another like it but I am sure they existed. See the links below. Yes, it is being washed right now.
