Jaxon, of Jaxon Hats and JaxonHats.com, is a dog. He belongs to Bruce Zales, Jaxon Hats designer who said this when asked about it in a 2005 HAT BLOG interview: “We were trying to come up with a name and a logo. I was walking the dog - my dog - Jaxon. I was trying to come up with an idea that would represent the line as well as it could possibly be represented. The dog was doing something funny; he had a really goofy grin on his face. He had that stupid dog smile and made my heart sing with joy. I thought what is better to represent the line than Jaxon – true, loyal, good, faithful, and representing all of the goodness of mankind and life.” Those who know the brand know that the logo is Jaxon mirrored in profile like a lion in an old British crest. We like dogs. Bangoo, sur la tête designer Susan Lee’s pug comes to work every day. She is part of our gang here at VillageHatShop.com headquarters. Furthermore, Susan and Bangoo are active in Pug Rescue in San Diego where they take in foster pugs awaiting adoption. Until permanent homes are found, these orphaned pugs come to our HQ with their foster master and sibling, Susan and Bangoo. Pet adoption, spaying, and neutering have become important causes for us at VillageHatShop.com.
If you are affiliated with an organization that is involved with animal rescue, spaying, or neutering, we’d like to donate 200 Jaxon ball caps as small incentives for you to give away to people who participate in your efforts and programs. The cap depicts the Jaxon crest. Simply email us at either susan@villagehatshop.com or fred@villagehatshop.com and let us know who you are and where to send the caps.
All the pets that we humans are responsible for bringing into the world deserve a good home. Thanks for your good efforts toward this end.
