New Era
Ny 9twenty Baseball Cap
The New Era 9Twenty is an unstructured baseball cap with a curved brim, made from 100% cotton twill, featuring an embroidered interlocking NY logo and an adjustable fabric strap with a metal buckle at the back. It is designed for casual wear and is noted for its lower crown profile compared to similar unstructured caps like the '47 Clean Up. User feedback highlights its superior embroidery and cleaner fit at the back, but also mentions inconsistent sizing and quality control concerns.

Product Insights
The New Era Ny 9twenty Baseball Cap offers a low-crown, unstructured silhouette with a rigid brim and finer denser embroidery than the 47, paired with a flush-fitting back strap for a cleaner look, all in wrinkle-resistant 100% cotton twill at $45. However, its shallower crown fits smaller heads better but varies unit-to-unit in depth and circumference, frustrating taller foreheads, while the brim can permanently crease if crushed and the buckle slips requiring readjustment.
Verified claims
- Crown depth
- Buyers report a lower crown than the 47 Clean Up that can be too shallow for taller foreheads.
- Sizing consistency
- Buyers report unit-to-unit variation in crown depth and circumference, making fit unpredictable.
- Fit
- The 9Twenty's shallower crown fits smaller heads better but its fit can vary between units.
- Embroidery
- The front logo is embroidered, and its embroidery quality is superior to the 47's.
- Back closure
- The 9Twenty's back strap is more flush against the head than the 47's.
- Brim
- The brim's plastic insert can permanently crease if crushed.
- Material feel
- 100% cotton twill resists wrinkles and feels soft.
- Silhouette
- Unstructured crown and rigid brim create a low-crown relaxed silhouette.
- Fabric stiffness
- Some buyers find the cotton front panel soft and flimsy rather than rigid, and one notes the logo can look recessed when the front panel is soft.
- Care
- Hand wash cold with mild detergent, reshape while damp, and air dry away from direct heat; avoid machine washing or drying to prevent shrinkage and keep the rigid peak.
- Head circumference
- The adjustable sliding strap is one-size-fits-most and typically accommodates heads around 55–61 cm, though the exact range is unspecified and fit can vary.
- Brim adjustability
- The brim is pre-curved and rigid, designed to stay curved; flattening or reshaping it may damage the peak.

Flimsy material- black logo on black cap
The material of the front panel was flimsy and soft so the logo was recessed. Was unable to push the front panel back to restore the proper shape. Cheap looking and not what one would expect from a $45 cap.

Detailed comparison of 9Twenty to 47 Clean Up by former Lids employee
But New Era has their line of dad hats, which are what '47 Clean-Ups are. They're the 9Twenty, and they tend to have a lower crown than their 47 counterparts, and far superior embroidery.

User switches to 9Twenty due to shallower fit compared to 47 Cleanup
I’ve been buying the ‘47 Franchise hats for a long time, probably have over 100 of them. Love the fit of the older ones for some reason. The ‘47 cleanup seems deeper than the 9twenty to me. I’ve been buying more 9twenty lately due to that. Wonder if we will see crossover with New Era buying ‘47.

Positive review of 9Twenty fit and back closure design
FWIW, I bought one and it fits great; my fitted size is a 7 - 7 1/8. Shallow compared to these new 47 clean ups and the cotton doesn’t wrinkle nearly as easily. Also one of my biggest issues with adjustable caps is the amount of extra space in the back after tightening it to my size that leaves a kind of “tail”; the 9twenty is much more flush to the back of my head when tightened so it looks cleaner from the sides and back too. I’m actually looking to replace my 47s with 9twentys.
