Emily King x Bullyboy: 3 One-of-One Statement Caps That Redefine Streetwear in Cape Town
- - - -
In the heart of Cape Town’s underground fashion and skate scene, a rare collaboration has just dropped. Bullyboy and Emily King Universe have come together to release three one-of-one handmade caps that blend elements of streetwear, jewelry, and contemporary art.
Each cap is designed by Cape Town-based fashion and jewelry designer Emily King. The base is Bullyboy’s signature camo cap, featuring the embroidered red back strap, a white clamp, and our embroidered white logo placed under the peak. These are not your usual camo caps. They are wearable art pieces with bold energy and strong individuality.

1. The Ring Leader Cap – Vintage Fur Meets Utility
The Ring Leader is a statement piece that commands attention. It is made using real vintage fur, silver rings, and carefully placed silver embellishments. One detail that makes this cap stand out is the hidden pocket stitched on the side. This pocket is designed to store your essentials, whether it be coins, folded cash, or something more personal. It is built with functionality and style in mind.
2. The Madonna Complex – Patchwork Royalty
The Madonna Complex cap tells a story through texture and symbolism. It features patchwork from upcycled materials, gold jewelry accents, and Emily King’s signature EK logo. The aesthetic is rich, spiritual, and commanding. This cap feels like a crown for someone who leads with style and purpose rather than following mainstream trends.
3. Icon Energy – Denim Dreams and Pink Ribbon Statements
The Icon Energy cap brings together up-cycled denim, silver detailing, and a pink ribbon sewn onto the back. It blends the softness of delicate fabric with the toughness of urban aesthetics. This piece celebrates individuality and street culture while keeping its roots in Cape Town’s expressive DIY energy.
