Ole Miss Colonel Reb Trucker Hat – PM Outfitters Retro Patch | Otto Foam Front Rope Royal Blue White

Ole Miss Colonel Reb Trucker Hat — Royal Blue & White Otto Foam Front Rope

The Colonel, back on your head. This Otto 39-165 foam front rope trucker features a fully embroidered Colonel Reb patch — the caricature of an elderly Southern gentleman with a wide-brimmed red hat and cane that served as Ole Miss's official sideline mascot from 1979 to 2003, with roots tracing back to his first illustrated appearance in 1937.

Construction Details:

• Otto 39-165 premium foam front — world famous foam fabric
• Royal blue foam front, white mesh back
• High profile, structured five-panel build
• Rope trim detail on the crown seam
• Terry cloth sweatband
• Durable snap closure — one size fits most

The Mascot: Colonel Reb first appeared in the 1937 Ole Miss yearbook and became a living, costumed sideline mascot in 1979, remaining in that role until 2003. The character is retired from official use today, which makes this patch a genuine nod to a specific, bygone era of Ole Miss game days rather than current branding.
