We're proud to premiere the 5th episode from our ongoing WIPheads series featuring Edgar Sarmiento, co-owner & founder of Heads Up Wear. We've known him throughout the years as a hardworking individual and caring family man. Having loved caps since his childhood, some of his unwavering passions are streetwear culture, WIP caps and music.

From one of our most trusted stockists to becoming a successful collaborator and brand owner, Edgar and Karell of HeadsUp got directly involved in creating the first 'Bonafide' Hemp snapback for Bone Thugs n' Harmony in Manila back in 2014 along with the 'Bonafide Camouflage' in 2017. They've always been fans of the group and were able to realize their dreams through their shared vision of creating a cap that pays tribute to their favorite Hip-Hop artists.
