Check out these concepts by @jessealkire on his site.
As Jesse explains…
I absolutely loved what New Era started in Minnesota at the 2014 MLB All Star Game by designing special All Star caps that honored the host team. The potential was set up for new caps every year on All Star night to tell a different story about a host team’s uniform history or local culture, while also allowing the game a rare chance to have some fun and get creative with their usually sacrosanct brands — not to mention increasing merchandise sales in the process. Unfortunately, that was a trend that only lasted two seasons.
So in an effort to show what could have been, each season I take it upon myself to continue what New Era once started and design my own concept caps for the MLB All Star Game. For the 2018 ASG in Washington D.C., I dipped into the city’s baseball past to help inspire the cap design, while also taking cues from that time period and D.C.’s world-famous cherry blossoms to create a campaign that celebrates the nation’s capital as well as the national pastime.
So here’s the NY one…and click on through to see what the other teams might look like, some cool socks ideas, other cool concepts, and an overall neat website. Concept CapTip to @philhecken (another must follow) for tweeting this out and about 10 things a day Phil catches that I retweet.
Sources tell Mets Police that @mediagoon is conceptually driving around trying to conceptually find a store that sells these.
and until the above cap exists, I guess you could buy one of these throwbacks….
