Since the 1950s New Era has been the official ‘on-field’ hat for Major League Baseball. When I first got into collecting New Era caps we didn’t call them ‘fitteds’. They were called ‘Pro Caps’ since the only other people with these joints were the professionals who worked in them.
New Era just became the official ‘on-field’ cap for the National Football League. To celebrate their achievement New Era is releasing a series of their classic 59Fifty Draft Day caps with the team cities embroidered on the front of the crown and team logos on the side. The caps come in a box that resembles a formula from the Wonderlic Cognitive Ability test. LOL.
The draftees will wear this cap on the podium this Thursday as the NFL draft gets underway. I wonder who will wear this Buffalo cap on Thursday, Michael Floyd or Riley Reiff?
I can tell you who will be wearing this Dallas cap. Me.
