Contrast Toronto Blue Jays Cap

The '47 Contrast Toronto Blue Jays Cap is a structured, snapback hat from the Cooperstown collection, featuring a deep crown and pre-curved visor that replicate early-1990s MLB construction. Its side 1992 emblem commemorates Toronto's first World Series win—the first by a non-US team—while a moisture-wicking sweatband and breathable cotton twill ensure comfort in warm weather. The rigid visor may contain a cardboard insert and requires spot-cleaning only, as machine washing damages the crown and embroidery.

Size adjustability

Snapback and sweatband adjust one-size 56–61 cm cap for a snug fit.

Why this is supported

Care

Spot clean only; machine washing damages the structured crown, embroidery, and finish.

Why this is supported

The brand explicitly requires spot cleaning only:

The product care instructions specify spot cleaning only — do not machine wash, bleach, or tumble dry. Use a mild soap and warm water, then flat dry.Can this cap be machine washed or is hand washing recommended?

Machine washing would collapse the structured crown, ruin the rigid pre-curved visor, abrade the embroidered logo, and cause the cotton twill to lose its shape and finish. The inner sweatband also requires regular dab cleaning to prevent salt buildup and stiffness. Prompt spot treatment of stains keeps the matte black uniform.
