"Outgoing Tide" Classic Dad Hat · Embroidered

Description

The embroidered dad hat features the phrase outgoing tide in solid steel-blue-gray thread across the front. The design uses a serif slab font on two lines, where ‘OUTGOING’ rises in a curved arch with letters that are largest at the center and diminish toward the ends, creating a sense of movement. The second line, ‘TIDE’, sits directly underneath in the same modern steel-blue-gray, this time on a straight baseline and with more regular spacing between each letter.

Beneath the text, a stylized white graphic in the shape of a wave or water swoosh is placed within the space below the lettering. This solid white embroidery, with a single curved tail curling at the right, breaks up the composition and visually ties the wording above to an aquatic theme. The overall background of the hat’s crown remains a flat solid gray, leaving open space above the arch of text and along the outer sides.

The embroidery technique creates tactile raised lines that give the classic low-profile structure its visual focus. Lettering and motif are crisply stitched without any outlines, making the detail feel direct and smooth to the touch. An understated option for those interested in aquatic themes or subtle text art, suitable for everyday wear or gifting to anyone drawn to minimal graphics.
