This does look like the logo from Licensed To Ill. It is instead a shameless rip off by Nike SB. It is a Pro. Model hat for Pro. Skater Paul Rodriguez. http://store.nike.com/gb/en_gb/?l=shop,pdp,ctr-inline/cid-103203/pid-499201 JUST DON'T DO IT!!!

Copyright infringement, really? There at least 400,000 examples of graphics companies appropriating iconic images/logos for t-shirts and hats over the past couple of decades. Are we mad cuz it's Nike doing it?

As for me, I am not mad or suprised that Nike would do this. Personally, I wouldn't spend a penny of my hard earned money with Nike before or after they coppied this iconic logo.

well they didn't copy the logo itself, just the design idea. was that Cey Adams' originally?

like resident copyright infringement expert JohnnyC mentioned, there's been a billion images re-designed logos for t shirts. think of all the marijuana shirts that are made out of adidas, UPS, McDonalds logos etc.

good eye, though, FLO.
