Compared within this brand.
| Retro Logo Perforated Weave Cap: Choose this if you want a black, one-size snapback with a lightweight, stretchy 97% polyester and 3% spandex blend and perforated crown panels that the brand says provide maximum ventilation. It also offers a sweat-resistant inner band, embroidered ventilation eyelets, and a slightly curved rigid visor. The look is driven by a raised oval rubber front patch with the New Balance and NB marks, tonal stitching, and a subtle side NB detail.[1,2,3] | Circle Graphic Dad Cap: Choose this if you want a relaxed, low-profile dad cap made of 100% cotton twill, with an unstructured six-panel crown, rigid curved visor, and embroidered ventilation eyelets. It suits you if you like a subtle branded look—an embroidered circular wordmark on the front plus a tonal NB on the side—on this off-white colourway with a contrasting black brim and adjustable strapback with a metallic buckle. It's also a practical pick for active wear thanks to an inner sweatband with NB DRY fast-drying technology that wicks moisture away.[4,5,6] | Embroidered Logo Faded Dad Cap: Choose this if you want a casual, low-profile dad cap with a relaxed look: it is made of 100 percent cotton twill with a faded finish and features an unstructured six-panel crown, a rigid curved visor, and an embroidered New Balance 'ATHLETIC DEPT.' logo on the front. It is offered in green in one size and adjusts with a strapback closure and metal buckle, with an inner sweatband and stitched ventilation eyelets for comfort and airflow. Note that the one-size fit may not suit everyone, and the faded finish is part of the design rather than a flaw to return it for.[7,8] |
