Deadstock Sport Specialties NBA Script Snapback Cap @ ForAllToEnvy
The 1986 NBA Draft is often associated with the tragic death of #2 pick, Len Bias from Maryland. However, the 1986 NBA Draft also began the era of team caps presented to a selected player as he makes his way to the big stage. Sport Specialties set the standard with their Script wool snapback back in 1986 and the tradition continues today. Fast forward twenty-four years later and this cap remains one of the most sought out snapbacks amongst sport and fashion heads. This style became associated with on court/field team authenticity and also becoming the official cap of N.W.A. Below are the Sixers and Bucks versions in solid wool color, no outline on the scripts, side NBA logoman, and green unders. No need to remind you, For All To Envy's Ebay store and AndStill La Brea in LA are one of the top spots to cop official deadstock snapbacks. Check or call for availability.

And Still La Brea x For All To Envy Deadstock New Era Golden State Warriors Fitted Cap
For EBay hunters looking for classic, deadstock, licensed apparel and caps, For All To Envy is no stranger to the game. Now if you happen to be in LA and looking for the same, then And Still is a must stop. Located on La Brea Avenue, this shop is stacked with some of the hardest caps from the mid 80's into the mid 90's. Together they form one of the best spots to serve up those team caps 'you use to have'. As part of their Fitted Fridays, F.A.T.E./&Still showcases this vintage New Era 5950 Pro Model of the Golden State Warriors. Personally one of my favorite Hardwood Classic logos and caps, the royal and gold were the perfect match, before the team started going into navy's and deeper golds. The GS Warriors also represents Brooklyn's own and St.John's Redmen, Chris Mullin! Read the Inside Label post we ran on our AJD Mullin snapback cap here. This is an all wool cap with green under visor, white sweatband, and nothing on the back. This gem was posted on Friday and they only had one piece in 7 1/4, so consider yourself privileged if you copped this!
