¡Llegó la tamalada! Our tamale tie-back scrub cap is a whole Mexican kitchen table on your head. Corn husk tamales tied with cilantro, salsa roja and salsa verde in blue and white Talavera bowls, ripe tomatoes, jalapeños, chiles rojos and fresh lime all rest on bright serape stripes over a deep black background. It's an OR World original print, designed by our team and made nowhere else.

A Mexican tamale surgical hat made with orgullo

Tamales mean family. They mean abuela's kitchen, the Christmas Eve tamalada, Día de la Candelaria and every celebration where the whole familia gathers to spread masa together. We turned that tradition into a bold, realistic print so you can bring a little bit of home to every shift in the OR, the clinic or the vet office. It's a traditional tie-back with a comfortable, close fit for men and short hair, and it's unisex too. The long matching ties let you adjust the fit, and it's sewn from 100% premium cotton that's breathable, lightweight and easy to wash. Every cap is handmade in the USA by our mother and daughter team.

Un regalo con sabor

Made for Latino nurses and enfermeros, surgeons, anesthesiologists and CRNAs, surgical techs, residents, vets and vet techs, dentists and x-ray techs who grew up on homemade tamales. It's a perfect gift for Christmas and Nochebuena, tamale season, Hispanic Heritage Month, Cinco de Mayo, 16 de septiembre, Día del Padre, birthdays or graduation. Just ask and we'll include a handwritten note.
