Your Baseball Hats

THAT'S IT!

I'm not in a huge hurry for it, really, but thanks gax.

How about pins, does anyone have a pin(s) on their hat(s)? I've got a mini Bernie Williams jersey pin on my Yankees cap.

I'd call them "flare" re J Aniston in Office Space.

I have a Cool Papa Bell pin but don't like em on caps.

I limit sartorial expression to my Whitehouse.org shirts, mostly.

my mom dated a dude who held the longest errorless streak at 2b for awhile when he played amateur ball in sd. i also think a relative of my mom's played a bit for the white sox in the early 1900's.

when i was a kid i had that exact pirates hat but it was the yellow one with a black P and black stripes. i was a huge willie stargell fan.

I picked up one of these last week, except in a fitted, brushed-cotton version. And no Nike logo.

I got a Hanshin Tigers hat in Japan a few months ago which is really awesome, it looks like this more or less:

I have one: a 2004 World Series Champions hat. And an AFL-CIO hat.

i did not wear a hat to the yankees/red sox game tonight.

i can't find my black mets hat, still. i wonder wtf happened to it? in the meantime, i have a grey pinstripey one. it's okay, but not great.

i am now wearing the goodyear hat from upthread.

is what i wear.

Also, holy shit: Negro League Caps. These team names, jesus! I had no idea. Black Crackers? Clowns?

If I could only find pics of some of my old hats... I admit, for a while I had a Yanks fullback, but it's long-dead on the floor of my parent's basement, I think. I also had this amazing Charlotte Hornets tricolor "graffiti' type hat that looked NOTHING like graffiti so much as just poor writing. I had an early-90s Jays cap for a while, too. Nothing else springs to mind.

yeah, i'm still all about the cotton "franchise caps." primaries are 60s and 70s o's "fun bird" caps, but i also really like the clemente era pirates cap and the early 70s bravos cap.

I used to always wear a black Jays new era w/ gold old-school logo, but it was stolen. so this is my default along with the black mets hat first posted

I have one official Tigers road hat, which I stole from my friend Tim.
One each of the Tigers and Red Sox franchise caps (I don't like these anymore)
One Chicago Cubs hat that I wore as a kid, which is twill with an adjustable strap (these are my favorite hats and noone makes them anymore, right?)

Are the A's wearing this hat this year? I haven't seen them play. It's pretty badass

Henry Aaron played for the Indianapolis Clowns. Back in the '40s, they would do Globetrotters-type shtick as well as play competitive games.

I wonder if that store on Haight has some new vintage caps / tees in? I thought twice about buying their stuff w/ this logo:

^^ Did that come with puka shells? :D

I kinda collect MLB caps. Which I suppose is slightly odd since I'm from Scotland...

I have these fitted caps:
Pirates (Black)
Pirates (Gold 70's style)
A's (Green)
Orioles (Black with orange O logo)
Mets (Black)
Nationals (Blue)

and these adjustable ones:
Cardinals (Red)
Red Sox (Blue)
Reds (Red)
Reds (White with red pinstripe)
Pirates (Black)
Mets (Black)

You can see a few of them in this pic here

I should say that the fitted ones are left on display and the adjustable ones only get worn when I'm working in the garden.
I'm old enough to feel weird wearing a baseball cap when I'm walking around town.

perhaps I will buy Homestead Grays cap on Haight next week.

I'm wearing this one today

Zaxxon, that is a nice cap.

treefell, I'm in my early 20s and I feel weird wearing a baseball cap. It always seems way too "dude" for me. I do it anyway, though, because I leave home AND leave work at just about the right times every day to get an eye-load of sun, and I have very thick glasses so sunglasses are out of the question. And it'd be even weirder to zinc up under my eyes.

When I was buying my Reds cap, the woman at the cash went to move the sticker and said "oh, wait, do you plan to wear the sticker?" (I don't know why she asked or felt moved to move it). I replied, "No." and she said something to the effect of "good, because that's lame." My response: "It's like, it's new, we get it." Then she laughed way too hard and I felt like a comic king for about an hour. That's customer service.

I like your story, Will.

I have:

* a Knoxville Smokies cap
* a classic Boston cap
* a red Nationals cap with the interlocking "DC" (NOT the "W" cap - urgh!!) - this is really a beautiful cap. there are gold highlights on the letters.

LA Dodgers (but don't wear, not that there's anything wrong w/ that)
CNN
NASA
Cowgirl Creamery

where is a serious hatter that aims low profile style for small heads? i've tried at least one of the MLB Franchise lines (adjustable kind) and hat comes down to ears and/or eyes.

200 workers shouldn’t have to lose their jobs to move production to a non-union facility or overseas.

Bottom Line: @MLB caps should be made by union labor in Western New York, USA. https://t.co/1QyZp2TYkp
