      For real. Paying $50 for a cap that now looks like it's made in china. Been buying them for two decades now, so it's easy to compare to older ones i have, and you can just tell there's no quality assurance anymore.

    Back in the 90s in UK. New Era caps were rare, and people wasnt really aware. I got a grey NYY 5950 from JJB then I managed to get a Red Yankees cap from Footlocker. They were made so much better back then. All low profile. Grey bill. Just great to wear. Now they look like a box on ya head. Hard to break in. I miss the 90s.

    Let's talk about the decline of the 59Fifty, that is, since it's no longer produced in the USA. When it was made in the USA, it had a better shape, better stitching, better overall quality.

    I love how you guys used footage and pictures of the factory in New York that you closed in 2019, causing 200 people to lose their jobs. It gives the false impression that it still exists. You also mislead the public by selling MLB on-fields made overseas even though the ones the players receive are actually made in the Miami-Dade area. The ones in stores should be sold as replicas, because that's what they are.

      @@insomniac186 that’s a lame excuse the real reason was it was cheaper to outsource there factory over seas a lot of the workers who make these hats get paid very little in these factories and they know that they know that in USA it would never slide and be acceptable there people making only a few dollars in their factories making the hats. They outsourced it to not just china now but places like Bangladesh Laos Vietnam Haiti and a few more. They figure they can save as such money using cheap labor and sell their product for more than their worth.
