International Harvester IH Logo Knit Pom Pom Beanie 1970s 1980s

This International Harvester IH logo knit beanie is a vintage 1970s to 1980s style winter hat with a royal blue body, white patterned band, and white yarn pom pom.

I like that the IH design is knitted directly into the hat rather than added as a separate patch. The repeated red and black International Harvester symbols stand out clearly against the cream white band and bright blue knit.

1. International Harvester clothing and accessories were often connected with the farm equipment brand and its dealer network.
2. This type of piece may appeal to IH, tractor, farming, and agricultural advertising collectors.
3. The repeated knitted IH symbols give this hat more visual identity than a plain logo patch would.
