Product Details & Size Guide
GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Carry a piece of Akron-Cleveland television history into your everyday routine with this WBNX-TV cuffed beanie. TV 55 began broadcasting on December 1, 1985, after a long path from an unrealized channel 55 proposal to a new station license. WBNX went on to bring viewers classic sitcoms, films and religious programming, then became familiar through Fox Kids, The WB and The CW. It is a thoughtful pick for local TV fans and collectors who remember the station's changing chapters.
WBNX-TV is the Akron-licensed channel 55 station serving the Cleveland television market. Its history reaches back to 1968, when evangelist Rex Humbard received a permit for WCOT-TV, a proposed station that was never completed; the FCC canceled that permit in 1976. A new licensing process began in 1980, and Akron-Rhema Television received the authorization. After the group ran short of funds, Ernest Angley agreed in 1984 to provide facilities and operating support, including studios he had acquired from Humbard. The station signed on as independent WBNX on December 1, 1985. Angley bought it outright in 1987 through Grace Cathedral, operating it as a for-profit ministry arm under the Winston Broadcasting Network name. Its programming combined classic sitcoms, films and religious shows. WBNX carried Fox Kids from 1994, joined The WB in 1997 and became a CW affiliate in 2006. The CW moved to WUAB in July 2018. Nexstar Media Group completed its purchase of WBNX in February 2025, after acquiring WJW in 2019; WBNX then reclaimed The CW affiliation and began airing WJW-produced local news. Its transmitter is in Parma, and its studios are in Cleveland.

This cuffed beanie carries a lived-in street energy—soft, warm, and quietly bold. The low-profile embroidery sits on the cuff like a personal insignia: a small, slightly distressed logo with a touch of red that reads as both vintage and current. It slips on easily and stays put through commutes, late-night walks, and chilly market runs, adding a subtle graphic edge without shouting.
Wear it with a worn denim jacket, layered knit, or an oversized coat. It works for creatives who like to curate a look that’s casual but considered, for city cyclists who need dependable warmth, or for anyone who favors compact, tactile details. The hypoallergenic acrylic knit keeps things comfortable against the skin while the 12" cuff gives you styling flexibility—fold it high for warmth or roll it low for a slouchier silhouette. This is a small, everyday piece that quietly completes an outfit and ages into its own personality.
