BEFORE WORKWEAR WAS STYLE, IT WAS WORK.

Before technical fabrics.

Before flashy patterns.

Before anybody cared whether workwear looked good in a picture—

there were craftsmen who needed gear that worked.

Canvas.

Leather.

Steel.

Cotton.

Tools built to last.

Clothing made to get dirty.

That world is the inspiration behind the Nexon Classic Tan Welding Cap.

A timeless tan welding cap built around fit, coverage, durability, and the traditions of the welding trade.

No gimmicks.

No unnecessary noise.

CLASSIC TAN.

BUILT THE OLD WAY.

THE COLOR OF OLD-SCHOOL WORKWEAR

Tan has been part of working culture for generations.

Canvas tool bags.

Leather welding gloves.

Work jackets.

Boots.

Shop aprons.

Dust-covered clothing.

Gear that started clean and earned its character one shift at a time.

Classic Tan takes inspiration from that history.

It’s simple.

Rugged.

Familiar.

A color that looks like it belongs next to steel, leather, welding hoods, grinders, and tools.

Because it always has.

FOR THE CRAFTSMAN

Technology changes.

Machines change.

Processes improve.

But underneath the hood, the fundamentals still matter.

Preparation.

Position.

Heat.

Travel.

Control.

Knowing what the puddle is telling you.

And knowing when something isn’t right before somebody else has to tell you.

Those lessons have been passed from experienced hands to new welders for generations.

Classic Tan is a tribute to that tradition.

Learn the craft. Respect the craft. Pass it down.

8-PANEL CONSTRUCTION

Classic Tan features an 8-panel construction designed to provide a better, more contoured fit around the head.

A welding cap may stay underneath your hood for hours at a time.

Fit matters.

Eight individual panels help create a natural shape around the head for a cap designed around everyday welding use.

Put it on.

Drop the hood.

Get to work.

8 PANELS. BETTER FIT.

DEEP CROWN COVERAGE

Every welder eventually learns the same lesson:

Sparks find openings.

Classic Tan features a deep crown design intended to provide additional fabric coverage around the sides of the head and ears when positioned appropriately.

Overhead welding.

Pipe.

Structural work.

Fabrication.

Maintenance.

The deeper profile is designed around the awkward positions and unpredictable spark exposure that come with welding.

The cap should always be used alongside the appropriate welding hood, protective clothing, and PPE required for the work.

BUILT TO HOLD ITS FIT

A welding cap that becomes smaller every time you wash it isn’t built for welding life.

Classic Tan is designed to maintain its fit and shape through repeated washing, helping prevent the shrinkage that can turn a favorite cap into one that no longer fits comfortably.

Sweat through it.

Get it dirty.

Wash it.

Put it back underneath the hood.

Again.

And again.

That’s what it was built for.

DURABLE MATERIAL

Classic Tan uses durable material designed for repeated everyday use.

Fabrication shops.

Pipeline work.

Refineries.

Power plants.

Industrial construction.

Maintenance.

Shutdowns.

Turnarounds.

Whether you’re burning rod all day or grabbing the hood when the job calls for it, Classic Tan was designed to live in the rotation.

Not on the shelf.

DOUBLE-STITCHED CONSTRUCTION

The Nexon Classic Tan Welding Cap features double stitching to reinforce its construction for repeated wear, folding, packing, washing, and everyday jobsite use.

Because welding gear has a hard life.

Stuffed into welding bags.

Thrown into trucks.

Sweated through for twelve hours.

Washed at night.

Back on the job tomorrow.

That’s not abuse.

That’s work.

LET THE JOB BREAK IT IN

There’s something about new work gear.

It’s too clean.

The leather hasn’t softened.

The boots don’t have scars.

The gloves haven’t shaped themselves to your hands.

The welding cap hasn’t spent enough hours underneath the hood.

Then the work starts.

The gear changes.

So does the craftsman.

Classic Tan isn’t designed around staying perfect.

It’s designed around becoming yours.

Don’t fake the wear. Earn it.

THE OLD HAND

Every shop has somebody who’s been there long enough to remember equipment nobody else has heard of.

The old hand.

He probably owns tools older than the apprentice.

His hood has seen better days.

His stories somehow get longer every time they’re told.

But when something goes wrong—

everybody looks his direction.

Because experience can’t be bought.

It gets earned one mistake, one job, one weld, and one year at a time.

Classic Tan honors the people who kept the craft alive long enough for the next generation to learn it.

BUILT FOR THE NEXT GENERATION TOO

Old-school doesn’t mean stuck in the past.

The craft survives because somebody teaches the next hand.

Journeyman to apprentice.

Welder to helper.

Parent to child.

One generation showing another how to hold the rod, watch the puddle, prepare the joint, and understand why doing it right matters.

Eventually, the apprentice becomes the experienced hand.

And the cycle starts again.

That’s how a trade survives.

BUILT FOR WELDERS

Pipeline welders.

Pipe welders.

Structural welders.

Fabricators.

Boilermakers.

Pipefitters.

Ironworkers.

Shop welders.

Apprentices learning their first beads.

Journeymen who’ve burned more rod than they care to count.

Different generations.

Same craft.
