Hey everyone,
We’ve been keeping a secret for a while now, and it feels good to finally tell you.
On November 12, we’re dropping a new collab with MANSORY. It’s called Barbas X MANSORY, and the tagline is “More Than Tradition.”
And yes, you read the title right. There will be only 10 pieces.
A little background
Barbas started with hats. That’s still the heart of what we do. We’re a brand that lives between the USA and Mexico, and a lot of what we make comes from there: the places we grew up in, the people around us, the things we saw every day and never really thought about until later.
Tradition has always been a big part of that. We never wanted to hide it or dress it up as something else.
But we also never wanted to sit still. Every drop we’ve done has been us asking the same question: what comes next? This collab is the loudest answer we’ve given so far.
What “More Than Tradition” means to us
We picked this line on purpose. It doesn’t mean we’re leaving tradition behind. It means we respect it, we carry it with us, and we still want to go further than what’s expected from a hat brand.
Working with MANSORY pushed us in that direction. We won’t say too much about the pieces yet, because we want you to see them properly on launch day, not through a description. But we can promise this is different from anything we’ve put out before.
Why only 10 pieces?
Honestly, because we wanted it to feel special. This isn’t a drop where we make a huge number and hope it sells. We kept it small so that every single piece actually means something, both to us and to whoever ends up with it.
The downside is obvious. 10 pieces will go fast. If you want one, don’t treat this like a normal drop day.
The details
- Date: November 12
- Time: 12AM
- Where: barbashat.shop
- Pieces: 10 only
How to get ready
A few small things that can save you a lot of stress:
- Open barbashat.shop a few minutes before the drop starts.
- Make your account ahead of time if you don’t have one.
- Keep your address and payment details ready so checkout takes seconds, not minutes.
- Check your internet. It sounds silly, but it happens more than you’d think.
Our store is always open
One more thing, because we get this question a lot. barbashat.shop is live all the time. It’s not a site that opens only on drop days.
Our older drops are still there, and so are the rest of our products. So if you miss the Barbas X MANSORY pieces, or you’re just here for a hat you missed earlier, you can go through everything anytime. The collab is the only thing with a countdown.
Stay close
To everyone who’s been with Barbas from the start, and to the new people who just found us, thank you. We don’t take it lightly. This drop exists because of you.
See you on November 12.
The Barbas Team
