WHY THE 59FIFTY?
STRUCTURED CAP
TRUE FITTED
FLAT VISOR
FULL CROWN
ELITE MATERIAL
Our pinnacle silhouette and the origin of the true-fitted baseball cap. The 59FIFTY cap has a precise, tailored fit and distinctive style that sets it apart. Unlike adjustable caps, the 59FIFTY is a fitted cap, meaning it comes in specific sizes to ensure a snug, custom fit. Eliminating the need for a snapback or strap, giving the cap a clean, seamless look.
The high-crown, structured design maintains its shape, creating a sharp, modern silhouette that sits prominently on the head. The cap's six-panel construction and interior taping offer durability and comfort, while our embroidered New Era flag logo on the side adds authenticity.
HOW TO WEAR
The 59FIFTY is versatile, effortlessly blending into various styles, from casual streetwear to more polished, athletic-inspired outfits.
Easily worn forward or back, the cap makes a bold statement, with more retro-feel baseball style. The flat brim, another signature feature of the 59FIFTY, is often left as-is, though it can be curved for a more classic look.
Our 59FIFTY caps come in a vast array of designs, from sports teams to collaborations and limited edition pieces.
As the official on-field cap of Major League Baseball (MLB), the 59FIFTY features the logos and colorways of all 30 MLB teams, from the classic navy and white of the New York Yankees to the bright red of the Boston Red Sox.
Beyond baseball, the 59FIFTY is also available in styles representing teams from other major sports leagues, including the NFL and NBA. Each cap is officially licensed merchandise with team colors, logos, and unique design elements, such as special edition patches for championships, anniversaries, or other team milestones.
