Wool Faded 5950

Setting it off for 07 with this new 5950 fitted from NE. As basic as it gets this is a wool fitted that hooks back (in color) to the Tim field boots. What makes this one a bit different is the faded wool treatment. The fabric has a ruff hand unlike their standard wool caps. The cap is available in most MLB teams at the New Era NY store.

DC x 5950 Print Fitted

Here is a new fitted collaboration between DC & New Era. The cap sports a printed abstract pattern around the whole cap. It's hard to distinguish what the print is based off but it reminds me of those wild body builder Zubaz pants from the 90's. The cap sports side taping, made of cotton, & tonal front DC logo. You can find this one at the DC flagship store in NYC or through the site.

Adidas Shape Shifter Pattern Fitted

These fitteds were posted about 3 months ago (read) when they were available only through Bodega Boston. Now they have been officially released in limited quantities to other stores mostly on the east coast. So with the release here are close up shots of the caps. The fitteds are cotton with the shape pattern printed all over & specific parts in raised embroidery. The front logos are totally flipped with alternatating colors & come strictly in NBA with most teams available. These are definitely some of the illest fitted caps out now.
