Product Insights
This officially licensed MLB cap features the enlarged Old English D logo used on-field since 2018. Made from standard polyester twill that resists shrinking and fading, it holds shape and is hand-washable without loss. Buyers wear it for game-day support and everyday casual use, citing comfort from sweat-wicking, breathable, lightweight construction. The tall crown matches the 59FIFTY, but it has a pre-curved visor instead of a flat brim. Fit is 22–23 7/8 inches with sizing variability by country. Performance is based on MLB on-field fabric but lacks performance-poly wicking. Build quality is cleaner and more durable than Mitchell & Ness caps.

Mixed opinions on clubhouse hat logo
That logo never did it for me but it’s fine. Give me the Old English in White or Orange any day over this.
