Batten Down The Hatches: Pirate Fashion Is About To Be A Thing

Yarrr lookin' hot.

People choose to be a pirate because they like the freedom of the open waves, ramming galleons in the Caribbean, and acquiring treasure. But also, the fashion.

The staple items? A loose-fitting white blouse...

...and a pair of knee-high boots.

With optional eye patch and hat.

However, pirate fashion had arguably become stale, since for centuries the look hadn't really evolved. Until now.

Introducing the "Tricorne Legionnaire," a red, gold-trimmed felt hat featuring a hidden legionnaire shade-flap.

Arguably this summer's most desirable accessory.

It's the brainchild of one of the world's most iconic pirates: Captain Morgan.

The Captain has gone full hypebeast with this one. He took a leaf out of the streetwear playbook by opening a pop-up store.

Fans were thrilled to meet the "it" pirate, live and in-person.

Will this look take off with your crew?

Well played, Captain. Well played.
