Spring Training/BP and Clubhouse Collections 2022

[@ethane-dawgwenger4207]

Anybody get their Clubhouse cap? Just got mine and I love it.

[@NEMOsleeps24]

I considered ordering one of those batting practice caps but my spring training cap from last year doesn't fit great as it is

[@holdenrobbins9539]

I think they should bring back both the Diamond era and the Hextech and use them more regularly. They breathe well and they don't look like I got it at a truck stop.

Fam I enjoy basic curved bill ball hats. i usually buy just plain flexfits. i like the hats with a soft crown. i dont mind the hard crown ones. is that the right terminology? Is it a style i'm missing? The soft crowns i dont have to worry about it getting dents/misshapen as sometimes i just toss a clip on it and attach it to my belt while working. i have googled and i just dont think i'm using proper terminology.

hey, do you have a video with tips on how to tighten up the top/back of the hat? i see videos on how to straighten them, but is there a way to shrink that area? i have short hair and the hat seems bunchy/baggy in that top to back area.

[@dreinthe616]

Well, you can further shrink those four back panels, but when the fabric shrinks you can get some rippling and puckering, around the seams in particular. Sometimes those go away when you put it on your head though. I'd recommend doing something like what I show in method #1 here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mpWWgJ-BlNySh9k - really soak those panels with a spray bottle and then hit it with a hair dryer, thanks.

[@sneepsneep]

@@dreinthe616 cool, will do. appreciate the reply!!

[@sneepsneep]

@@dreinthe616 thanks for the help. last questions. I steamed and tried to lay down that back seam that was bumping up and it ended up puckering. it doesn't want to go away. is there a fix? is there a way to properly lay down a seam is that bumped up without it puckering?

[@skittelzmusic]

Great breakdown 🧢 I considered getting a Spring training cap but I skipped the release.

[@dreinthe616]

Thanks man, always appreciate your viewership!

[@skittelzmusic]

@@dreinthe616 no problem 🧢🙏🏽

[@VozzieB11]

I wish the clubhouse ones came in low profile

[@themlbkid619]

Couldn't have said it better myself Doug absolutely agree on your take 👏🔥❤️🙌

[@josevz4693]

Can someone help me?, I have a New York Yankees fitted hat with the statue of liberty and the big apple behind and I’m looking for sell it but I dont know where. Is New and it never used is from 2020 6 7/8 the last one was sold in $800

[@skittelzmusic]

$800 or $80?

[@elliotspencer1384]

Sell it on eBay.

[@ethane-dawgwenger4207]

This years Spring Training caps are a huge disappointment. I love the meshback trucker style, but the designs on the front are boring as hell.

[@MrPresidentGeek]

The new clubhouse hats are definitely worth it. I snagged a Brewers and a Tigers cap. The Tigers cap I bought has the tiger head inside the outline. It looks really nice. Can't say I'm a fan of the Mother's and Father's Day collections. I have always found those to be gawdy and unnecessary. Some of the recent Independence Day cap designs haven't faired well, either. Not sure if COVID affected that or not. Hopefully we can get something better.

[@chop3625]

Side patches just destroy the Cap. What’s with the Patch happy phase??

[@dreinthe616]

Personally not sure, they just sort of became required to drive quick sales and definitely took off during the pandemic… waiting for it to calm down a bit for sure.

[@AJSmith-lt5yc]

Shout out to the Hex Tech!! Best ever!

[@scottdassler3964]

The spring training caps side patches are rough but I love the clubhouse hats

[@dreinthe616]

Agree, I think a majority of the Clubhouse designs are pretty solid, thanks.

[@bodegatiger404]

are the players actually going to be wearing the clubhouse caps? never seen them around on the field or even in the press conferences

[@dreinthe616]

That’s a good point, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a player wearing one, through all the years of releases!

[@AJSmith-lt5yc]

Clubhouse is Pivot Mesh I thought they called it?

[@dreinthe616]

Maybe so, I just could not find a lot of documentation of that in the cap detail notes… seems as though they’re not making a big deal of it anyway.

[@elliotspencer1384]

So much to cover ✅ Historically I’ve never bought the ST caps ✅I was glad to see that a new distinct BP collection was offered. Buying the newest BP caps serves as a rituals for anticipating the upcoming MLB season. ✅I was letdown the ‘22 BP caps incorporated trucker mesh. I wish this style would run its course. ✅ I share the sentiment of re-introducing the 2019 “hex tech” material. ✅ Equally excited a distinct new Clubhouse collection was introduced. I like the silicone logos and the square material. I like that this collection serves to present caps with designs that think outside the box. Overall I like it. ✅ I also hope there will be a return of the Players Weekend cap collection. ✅ Glad to see your latest video. Been a while. Keep’m coming. ✌️👍👍👍

[@dreinthe616]

Excellent summary, thanks Elliot!

[@ethane-dawgwenger4207]

I do like the design of the Clubhouse caps. Especially the design for my Philadelphia Phillies. They all have a different type of style and design unlike the Spring Training and batting practice caps. Edit: I just bought a Philadelphia Phillies 9FORTY Clubhouse cap. I am so excited to wear it. It looks so good.

[@knp33]

im really liking these alternate designs and totally agree with you about the patches btw. having matching team colors for them woulda been the way to go. keep up the nice contect

[@titans1127]

I wish they had released the Batting Practice caps at the same time as the Spring Training caps. I would have preferred to not have the patch but overall I like the cap regardless.

[@dreinthe616]

Same here, I actually ordered a couple of the BPs when they first appeared… was a bit of a surprise because they waited longer than usual imo.

[@sowhenthen]

I have hundreds of caps, but maybe a dozen or so 5950s. I think the solution is to stop buying those caps.

[@skittelzmusic]

5950's were huge in 2021

[@joeg4707]

Yet again, Spring Training designs are poor. I agree, a few of the logos look pretty good. I'm not a fan of the mesh, but maybe that's just me. Prior Clubhouse Collections were better designs. I don't care for the homeplate outline with this year's Clubhouse. It's unnecessary and limiting. Sure, a few alternate logos are passable inside the homeplate design, but most are miss.
