About this Shoe String King SSK Rasta Knit Tam Hat Dreadlock Cap by Shoe String King

These colorful crocheted Rasta Knit Tam hats are tall and circular. The pat is most often connected with this SSK-branded product as a technique for Rastafarians (Rastas) and those with dreadlocks to tuck their strands behind. However, Rastas and non-Rastas alike might use this fashion item for a variety of reasons. Because these hats are loosely fitting, the unusual design is frequently referred to as a “Tam” (or “tam”).

People with and without dreadlocks use rasta caps for a number of reasons, including fashion, convenience, social commentary, and a range of other concerns. Some Rastas use rasta caps and other types of headgear as religious head coverings. Long-haired health and food service personnel and heavy machinery operators may wear it for workplace safety reasons.
