Appearance

The Cycle King Cap is a short-brimmed hat that changes color to match that of the wearer's ink. It has a thick dark stripe down the middle with the trademark "squideye" of the Tentatek logo on it in white, as well as sections of light-colored polka dots on either side. On the brim, which is the same dark color as the stripe, the Inkling text from the Tentatek logo is printed, also in white. Next to the text is a circular design which appears to be a black fish on an orange background. On the back of the cap, in the middle of the stripe, the text from the Tentatek logo is repeated in white. Next to it, on the section of polka dots, a pair of tiny black fish (or possibly airplanes) can be seen. These fish are easily overlooked due to their small size and placement.
