59Fifty

The 59Fifty is a specific style of baseball cap manufactured by New Era Cap Co. It is characterized by its structured, fitted design, high profile, and flat brim. Officially licensed by Major League Baseball (MLB), it is the official on-field cap worn by all MLB teams, as well as many Minor League Baseball teams.

Key features of the 59Fifty include a closed back (meaning it's not adjustable) and a sizing system based on hat size, typically ranging from 6 5/8 to 8. The construction involves six panels of fabric meticulously stitched together, creating a durable and rigid crown. The visor is flat, although it can be curved by the wearer. The cap typically features the team logo embroidered on the front.

Beyond its use in professional baseball, the 59Fifty has become a fashion staple, worn by individuals of all ages and backgrounds. It is often associated with streetwear and hip-hop culture. The cap's popularity has led to countless variations in terms of color, fabric, and design, including collaborations with various brands and artists. While initially designed for baseball, the 59Fifty's distinct look and cultural significance have made it a recognizable and iconic piece of headwear worldwide.
