This is the first product release from the world's most boring company. The hat comes with an ultra premium velcro strap and one size fits all technology. At a starting and ending price of $20, with shipping and tax included, this is a steal.

The Boring Company, one of the leading Golden Kitty Award contenders of the year, just launched the world's most boring hat. This is the first product release from the world's most boring company. The hat comes with an ultra premium velcro strap and one size fits all technology. At a starting and ending price of $20, with shipping and tax included, this is a steal.

Is it bad that I bought this instantly? Me:

I like Elon's idea (and his sense of humour): 1. If it raises a considerable amount of money, it will make for one of the best fundraising stories: - "So how did you get the money to build it?" - "I sold hats..." 2. It is boring... 3. By wearing it, I will promote the company and show my support

I love the company and obviously Elon is no dummy, but doesn't this posting represent the opposite of what PH strives to be? A place that levels the playing field so that little guys with good products can get noticed? After all, this crowded out some startup from the top 5 for the day. (Of course, I'll likely buy the hat. And I love Product Hunt, so my mini-rant is over!)

Yep it is really should be on a product hunt. when some guys trying to get at the top making good products, some of community posting submiting bullshit that get on main page and everybody upvoting that product.

This is a great product overall, just got 20 of those for *each* family member. Would recommend to anyone who likes hats and/or boring equipment.

Pros:

Stylish, fashionable, one size fits all, good fabric, premium quality finish, makes geeks follow you around

Cons:

Kinda boring

Make a hat Use that money to build underground tunnels Use that money to build even more underground tunnels While doing above, also reduce congestion in cities and provide fast transportation options Don't tell anyone.

This is ridiculously priced despite embroidery and shipping cost. I would think the Boring Company would utilize a better embroidery/design service that doesn't look like bad swag bag handouts.

Pros:

It protects you from some sunburn

Cons:

This is a 3$ hat for 20$ with really poor embroidery

Where do you buy hats for $3? Why, this humble non-profit sells hats for $40-$45 https://shop.donaldjtrump.com/pr...

Had it delivered to the UK and had to pay £12.50 custom tax. Should have read the comments he and abandoned at royal mail to be lost in the ocean of rejected items

Even if I wasn't dealing with student loans, starting a company, and trying to stay afloat- I would not buy this hat.

Pros:

It's a hat

Cons:

I don't get it - Is this an inside joke or something?

Planable
Yes, one of Elon's company's is called The Boring Company. They are design new ways to create tunnels under cities to reduce traffic. It is a play on words but an interesting idea. Next time you are stuck in traffic, think about it and maybe you will change your rating. https://www.boringcompany.com/

Reminds me of Airbnb's Obama-O's and Cap'n McCain's though I doubt Elon's team is looking for serious funding with this.

I've begun to lose interest in Elon's pipe dreams. I hope my cynicism is misplaced.

Pros:

You might contribute a few dollars to future tech

Cons:

Most of your money is going to a hat company and not future tech.

He's casually launching and landing reusable rockets. He's accelerating the electric car industry. He's changing energy. They're not pipe dreams. He's actually doing it!

@nick_georgiou1 We've had the technology to send a human from San Fran to NY in < 30seconds. The problem is, it's not cost-effective and they'd be a pile of mush on the other end. Making profit selling cars and boring tunnels is very exciting. Giving away those cars (sold at a loss) and saying you received verbal government approval (not a thing) to bore is not very exciting at all.

I am very much convinced that the Boring Company is one of Nathan Fielder's stunts. Releasing a hat for a company is very much something he'd do "to make a company legitimate" on his show.

The Boring Company will be making the drills and tunnels that will go under Trumps walls.

Pros:

Promotes awareness in a goofy way.

Cons:

Truly boring product.

Julien Ricard

I would like to see what is under the cap

Pros:

This hat seems perfect for putting on top of my head

Cons:

I already have a hat

Nathan
Wish it was available as a fitted hat. I can’t stand snap backs, or the Velcro straps. Oh well, still buying one lol
