CALIFORNIA MAN PIMPING PIMP HATS
HERMOSA BEACH, Calif. (Wireless Flash) A California man is the pimp of pimp hats. Jeffrey Halfshaq Marino claims hes cornered the market on pimp hats those broad-brimmed, feathered caps most often seen on pimps in 1970s-era blaxploitation flicks like Superfly and Shaft. He sells about 15 hats a day and, surprisingly, he says most of his customers ARENT pimps. So who is buying the furry, feathered and floppy head wear? Marino claims its mainly clubgoers, costume party fans and folks throwing bachelor and bachelorette parties although a few buyers have claimed to be real pimps. The hats sell for around $40 apiece and can be seen on www.pimphats.com.
