Ah. I was thinking of the grey ones with the maroon trim they used to have.

Kroblin Trucking out of Waterloo, IA.
My Grandpa drove for them from 1968 to 1991...said he loved it. Did the Waterloo/Chicago turn. Got all his Safety Pins (1, 5, 10, 15, and 20 year hat pins; plus 1, 1.5, and 2 Million Mile hat pins) and a couple patches as well.
He passed away in 2008...and talked trucking (and Kroblin) with me until the day he died.
Remember when Hat Pins and Patches were "the thing"? Drivers got MUCH, MUCH respect from everyone if they had a hat full of pins and a vest full of patches. Like a decorated Officer sort of. The good old days, and the brotherhood of trucking. -
