2023 Fourth of July Mets Cap

Some horrible person has taken over Big Caps and mandated that ALL caps have a sidepatch.  Why is this?

Anyway, coincidentally I was cleaning out my trunk and found last year’s 4th of July cap which I wore like twice and it immediately got REALLY sun faded, so in good conscience I cannot encourage you to buy this year’ model.  The quality of officially licensed material in all the major sports has gone WAY down from where it was a decade ago….so I will just wear my old stuff which will become increasingly random/retro.
