Baseball hats 100% custom made for your brand

The baseball hat is defined by its soft structured crown and extended visor-style bill coming off the front. The name ​“baseball hat” arose as this style of hat was increasingly worn by baseball players, both to shield their eyes while playing and represent their team.

Traditionally, baseball hats features the following attributes. These days, the term ​“baseball hat” can refer to almost any front-brim cap.

1. Structured 6 crown panels sewn together contouring heads
2. The stiff brim helps frame the gaze by casting shade downwards
3. Adjustable metal or plastic band allows sizing range
4. Cotton, polyester, and breathable mesh comprise popular builds

People wear baseball hats for several reasons:

• Sun protection: the brim offers shade, protecting the face and eyes from the sun.
• Fashion and style: they’re a popular accessory, adding a casual, sporty touch to outfits.
• Comfort: they’re comfortable and convenient for everyday wear.
• Sports team support: they serve as a way to display team spirit, fostering a sense of camaraderie among fans and enthusiasts alike.

Baseball hats are generally considered casual rather than formal. They’re commonly worn in relaxed settings or for outdoor activities hence why they might not be appropriate for formal occasions.

Baseball caps are worn by a broad spectrum of individuals, from sports enthusiasts to fashion-conscious individuals. Athletes, fans, casual wearers, and those seeking sun protection all wear them.

Baseball caps can provide some protection from light rain due to the brim, but they’re not entirely waterproof. If you live in a particularly rainy region, make sure you’re choosing waterproof baseball hats to prolong their life span. 

New Era Cap Company manufactures the official on-field caps worn by Major League Baseball (MLB) players during games.

The terms ​“baseball cap” and ​“dad hat” are largely synonymous. 

If you want to get super technical, you could differentiate baseball caps from dad hats in the following ways, though we’re not sure it’s worth your time, given that many people use the terms interchangeably. 

Fit:

• Baseball caps are typically unstructured or lightly structured with curved brims and fit closer to the head. They often have adjustable plastic straps on the back, making them a type of snapback cap.
• Dad hats may have more structured crowns that don’t curve with a head shape. They sit higher on the head with a loose and comfortable fit. Dad hats often don’t have size adjusters.

Structure:

• Baseball caps often have stiff front crowns that are either curved or flat. They retain their rigid shape, which provides the classic baseball cap silhouette.
• Dad hats often have soft crowns with little to no stiffening or reinforcement inside the crown. This allows the hat to be more pliable and worn loosely on one’s head.

Style:

• Baseball caps frequently feature sports team logos or branded imagery or text on the front. They have an athletic aesthetic geared for sports/​outdoor activities.
• Dad hats typically feature more simple text or graphics on the front that aren’t overtly branded or flashy. They have a casual, relaxed aesthetic compared to baseball caps.
