New Era’s Cooperstown Authentic Collection features throwback styles worn on-field during the Grey Bottom’s heyday. Sometimes it’s the little things that make a throwback classic great. In this case, it’s the absence of the New Era flag on the left side of the hat. The New Era branding was not always present on on-field baseball hats, and this pays homage to that look aficionados revere. Less is more! This small detail is becoming increasingly popular these days and is part of the “Cooperstown Authentic Collection”. This is not made from performance fabric, rather a polyester blend that is more suited for fashion-wear featuring much brighter, bolder colors. Of all the different iterations of the San Diego Padres official team colorway, this always stands out as the cleanest and simplest. Light Navy crown, visor and button makes this easiest to match with everyday fashion. A little known fact about the logo: although it is obviously an interlocking logo of “S” and “D”, there is a smaller, hidden “P” that forms in between the two letters. This Easter egg makes this one of our staff’s favorite logos. Absence of New Era flag mimics the throwback appearance of New Era baseball fitteds.
