The 59FIFTY Story | New Era Cap

[@angelescobar8804]

Shout out New Era! You guys legit are the best. I don’t leave my house without that Dodger blue LA hat. Thank you for what you’ve done for people and for the culture.

[@octoberbasa7053]

I became a fan of the 59fifty with that MLB logo because of Fred Durst.

[@mid-s_to_earlysViBEZ]

Fr…He was the man.

[@donellweaver5722]

New Era we love you and also happy that you will do NHL hats once again in fitted and snapback as I remember

[@donellweaver5722]

@ThatChrisDude wait a minute u didn't know that the New Era made a deal with the NHL to make hats for the teams again

[@donellweaver5722]

@ThatChrisDude U welcome!!!!

[@fredleinweber2819]

@@donellweaver5722 Fanatics is still the official apparel provider. Infact all around now as Adidas gave way to Fanatics to do the jerseys too. being a hat company New Era has always made hats for all the leagues regardless of sponsorship.

[@Trippy-Hatfitter]

I have new era Blues fitteds already 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@donellweaver5722]

@Trippy-Hatfitter how u got Blues fitted already New Era hasn't released the hats yet for every team yet

[@skittelzmusic]

Huge shout out to all the fitted collectors 🧢🎉

[@macheteddie]

5950 is just a standard shape now. I would reference it for shape build when sending spec guides to China all the time. What’s more crazy is these $2 hats are sold for $50

[@ManapuaMan187]

Bring back the quality of new era prices keep going up while quality keep tanking

[@jaycoleman11]

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.

[@johnniemiec3286]

New Era used to make good stuff. Not for a while now. Maybe they need to bring production back home to the U.S.?

[@johndodger]

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.

[@kimcokevin]

Need to bring some American production back, New Era Premium edition. I personally would pay a premium for one.

[@오상엽-o2o]

Bring back buffalo factory and MIU cap

[@kelvinator38]

new era till I die. I love my pops for introducing me to these hats man its a lifestyle.

[@zelfkweek1984]

I'm totally addicted to these headpieces 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@RRFineArt]

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. An American pride, produced elsewhere, with all the problems involved

[@bernietupperman4667]

@RRFineArt ABSOLUTELY! Quality of the 59Fifty hats definitely dropped after U.S. production stopped. The sizes also stopped being reliable and accurate. Two hats of the same size will not fit the same. And the NE logo on the side is cheeseball garbage. It makes this once beautiful lid look like it came from a Sunday hat giveaway to the first 10,000 fans through the gates. Luckily, some patient and careful work with a razor blade and tweezers will take care of the hideous NE logo. Like Spike said, the MLB logo patch on the back means it’s a New Era.

[@donhatter159]

New Era 59fifty fitted cap is the best baseball cap of all time in history.

[@JonathanFox-o8p]

You’re obviously not old enough to remember Tim McAuliffe/ KM Pro. Look them up, New Era ain’t 💩 compared to what they were.

[@donhatter159]

What about it?

[@eltunazapata5986]

When I was a kid back in the mid 2000’s. The quality was decent. Now the quality is hit or miss. Bring back USA made NEW ERA. Business will boom more.

[@ThaTGanGTV]

Thank you new era for your impact on sports and hip hop culture.when I was in high school during the ‘00’s I would always wear a 5950 to school I couldn’t wear it but I’d hold it with my folder jus to show the coordination with the fit.i became so known for having fitteds all the time that New Era became my stage name as an MC and I wear it with pride!!!the day I collab with you guys is the day I know I’ve made it!!!#59504Life#NewEraForever#DhatGang

[@talksmoke1190]

Been buying new era caps since 1982. Have almost every on field model since that point

[@oskar6380]

Overseas made, low quality, size inconsistencies, I have been wearing new era hats for the last 25 years, you can tell the difference between old US made and now overseas made hats

[@MoViesDProductions]

My thoughts. They go on about the "love and passion" but that's not the vibe I've been getting the past years with them moving production overseas and overall just making an inconsistent product.

[@PancakeLizard710]

I think they are made in Bangladesh

[@MimzyVerified]

Everybody in the video: “it symbolizes where you’re from… it’s who I represent” *Meanwhile I’m over here buying random mlb hats to match my outfit*

[@briantran3791]

Love your hats and have been wearing them for years ! I even lost on in the Pacific Ocean lol. Keep up rhe great work.

[@andrewhaynes6638]

It's a shame the caps are now such different patterns and poor quality with them mostly being outsourced overseas.

[@djciscoelnino]

the line "Well, it's going to be all yours now. Don't F' it up" hit me hard. You can probably relate if you lost a parent.

[@leeto5920]

This was truly Dope ..

[@evancortez2]

The only thing I don't like about the 59Fifty is the sizing is inconsistent, some 7 1/4 hats are tight fitting, some 7 1/4 hats are loose fitting, and some are just right, some 7 1/8 hats fit like 7 1/4, some 7 5/8 hats fit like 7 1/4, and don't say it's how long my hair is, it's not

[@DSaxmon]

They are all hand stitched... There's room for error.

[@VNTPLA]

As they're made in different factories in different countries except where they should be made, usa

[@RTCalibre]

Have over 400 5950s in the collection 🙌🎉

[@DJ3DBoyie1]

Sadly I can’t find 59fifties around with the quality it used to be.. even more so, most of the LIDS and other hat stores sell snapbacks.. I miss ordering blanks and rocking our company logo and my favorite sports teams on a true fitted 59fifty.. just ain’t been the same 😭

[@insomniac186]

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.

[@오상엽-o2o]

Absolutely agree, New Era better make that clear

[@DrefDref-q4p]

I wonder why they moved out of New York …

[@insomniac186]

@@DrefDref-q4p their official reason was that they no longer wanted their own employees doing the actual manufacturing and wanted to use contractors instead so they could focus more on being a "brand." However, their state tax benefits for keeping the plant open were going to expire. Coincidence?

[@lifewithchuckie562]

@@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.

[@jorgericosax]

The Cleveland Indians wahoo fitted is the all time best designed hands down .. retired and now a collectible if you know you know .

[@ERogers-qn2sm]

Best hat ever made period! I rock 59fiftys 365 days

[@jasonp724]

New era,no competition!

[@IAmTimBaker]

All the hats are made in Vietnam, Bangladesh and other countries outside the USA and it's always a crapshoot if your size is going to fit. Maybe focus on consistent quality regardless of where they are made. It would also be nice if you made these in the USA.

[@markpinagpala2784]

[@dabears87_76]

Am I the only who's seen quality control issues lately. I recently got a KC Chiefs fitted hat with multiple issues. The material under the bill is wavey and the word Chiefs on the back is crooked.

[@morningsidedriverock]

I prefer 39thrity. It’s a better fit for me. LET’S GO YANKEES!! Also, C.C. would get a brand new hat every inning. That’s the story at least.

[@latuwagapat]

The one thing this video need is Fred Durst lol. I mean no disrespect, sure Spike Lee is the 1st person who wear the red Yankee cap but I think Fred help further popularize it to many people outside US like myself, in the late 90's and early 00's red backward yankee cap is associated with Fred, just type limp bizkit on youtube searchbar the top 5 music vid are him wearing the red cap 🤣🤣
