Yikes. They need to make a red hat w/ the A logo, I haven't seen that yet. I don't really care for the new cartoony snake/D logo, so I don't want that. The DB is weird and too penis like, so I want a nice red hat w/ the A logo- seems like that would be available already.

Ha.. My wife said the same thing when she first saw the new logo..

Perhaps the logo maker was trying to make up for his shortcomings.

Anyhow, from what I hear, those flaps on the side are actually sweat absorbers, and the sweat soaks in and dries on the sides. They're supposed to be a new innovation in hat creation.

I heard this hat is one of those hats that fits everyone. I was told it has the elastic going around the hat. I'm not a big fan of those type of hats.

I actually bought the hat earlier in the week and I plan on taking it back and getting a refund.

While I like the design,sadly the new sweat absorbers on the side make the sides stick out, thus looking stupid on your head. A few different people pointed it out to me, so I know I'm not just imagining it. So back to the old designs for me :thumbdown

That's lame, I actually thought about buying one (they have the new Diamondbacks colors here, wierd ) but after what you said I'm sticking with the one I have now. ( The black one with the red "A")

Hold out for one of those new synthetic hats.

It has always seemed stupid to me that baseball hats are made out of wool.

What are you talking about? I haven't heard anything about new synthetic hats. Are they going to have synthetic game hats too or just BP? When are they coming out?

I got an ad for the new style for MLB hats in my email a couple days ago, I'm not sure if those are the synthetic ones devilalum is talking about or not.

I saw a commercial last night about the new hats, still have no clue where you can get them or what makes them so special.

Me either, I like the one I have now. Plus the new official ones are the 59fifty caps, all the "suburban gangstas" wear those.
