A new era of hat fashion

[A Boy Named Seo]

Great news, everyone! I now know what my dream job is! It's the New Era Hat Design R&D position, where presumably, it is only expected of the person(s) holding that job to get HIGH AS FUGGG and https://www.neweracap.com/collections/new-york-mets?page=1crap out a bunch of designs and all of them will be accepted! A job where you only fail by not showing up!!





Did you ever eat a dank-ass brownie and think to yourself "what if the Mets were the Padres?" Well, so did some other potsie in the R&D department at New Era!

Have you ever eaten 14 gummies and wonder "why isn't my Mets hat green and have a butterfly on it?" Someone at New Era had the SAME EXACT thought.

Have you ever swallowed half a bottle of THC tincture and wonder if angels (Heaven not Anaheim) are into the Mets? It's a very good question, you, and one that New Era emphatically attempted to answer.

Have you ever rubbed pot cream all over your arms and legs and went fishing but couldn't stop thinking about baseball (or vice versa) and wish there were merch that combined both things? SO HAS SOMEONE ELSE AT NEW ERA.

So my question is: What the fuck?

They turn down no designs. It's like being the https://www.theimpulsivebuy.com/wordpress/pringles-flavor-list/flavor designer at Pringles.

At least you could fish in the fish one

And my answer is: a combination of drugs and stupidity.



Forget the colors and artwork. How could anyone who loves baseball design, much less wear, a baseball cap with a flat brim?

Fuck 'em.

My guess is that it simply has cost New Era an arm and a testicle to become the official hat of MLB (replacing Starter?), and it costs them more every year, and it's only a matter of time before Nike does to them what they did to Majestic and Under Armor, bigfooting them out of the MLB official apparel game AND becoming the first to display the logo on the front.



So New Era is going to squeeze what they can out of us while they can do it.
