Aban (“Fortress”) embroidered on a structured cap. Made to order for you.

Aban — the fortress. In the Akan visual language of Adinkra, Aban ("castle" or "fortress") speaks of strength, authority, and security: a seat of power historically reserved for the Asantehene, King of Ashanti. It is worn by those who know that real strength is not loud — it is steady, structural, and built to last.

The Aban icon sits embroidered in cream thread across the front of a structured six-panel trucker cap — a clean, everyday way to carry the symbol.

The details

  • Structured six-panel cap with a foam front panel that holds its shape
  • Aban (fortress) motif embroidered in cream thread
  • Breathable mesh back for all-day wear
  • Adjustable snapback closure — one size fits most
  • Curved brim

Part of the Sankofa House Adinkra Collection — apparel rooted in West African symbolism, made for everyday wear.

Fit & care

  • Fit: One size fits most, with an adjustable back.
  • Care: Spot clean and air dry to protect the embroidery. Avoid machine washing and tumble drying.
