"Not the US Government coming for your brand?"— Fans react as Harris Walz hat design resembles Chappell Roan's Midwest Princess hat

On August 7, 2024, singer-songwriter Chappell Roan was surprised to see the similarity between the Harris Walz hat and her “Midwest Princess” hat. An X user, @YungDagger808, posted the two hat pictures showing that Harris Walz had the same camouflage print and orange text. The signer reposted the tweet and asked, “Is this real.”

Chappell Roan released her Midwest Princess hat in September last year, as she dropped her debut album, The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess. On the other hand, the Harris Walz hat, with the same print, was released just recently, on August 7, 2024.
