On closer inspection it seems that the UK site leaked those, they aren't up yet on the US site. Explains why there's 21 teams and only 1 Vikings hat but 6 for the Dolphins.

From what I gathered the flashy hats are more in their "draft" range where I think the "training camp" and "sideline" ranges will be more what we're used to.

Kind of a naive NFL merchandise related question, but is this "Training Camp Hat" thing a regular yearly thing or a one time event just because Nike is the licensed merchandiser now? I always thought draft day hats were kind of silly, but a training camp hat along with the others is overly ridiculous.

Well apparently Reebok made "training camp" hats for 2009 at least, in straw!.

Going through an image search it looks like Nike made ones for colleges out of the dri-fit material, so it's not too silly if you think of it as a hat you can wear while training...not really sure if that should be any different from the "sideline" hats though. I guess those are regular hats for guys standing around and not sweating a bunch :confused:.

There's a joke hat that is all 59/50 stickers. The whole hat is completely covered with them except there is a hole through the brim where the sticker would normally be.

I remember when I was a cool young lad (stupid white kid) in the early 90s and left the starter tag on my Miami Hurricanes ball cap.

I'm not sure which is the more sad, pathetic fall from relevance in the present day - Starter, or da U.

It's really lazy. They didn't even try for a design, just slapped the two colors on it and threw the helmet patch on the front. Probably took someone 5 minutes to figure it out.

I thought they did it because the Vikings logo alone on a standard cap looks kind of stupid, sort of like how I mentioned the Browns (or the Bengals). Then I noticed they had a Ravens one.

I'd imagine with the draft range they're aiming to target younger fans especially as you've got that window where college fans are looking at their favourite college players head to the NFL and they want to convert some of those fans - having New Era really push the traditional boundaries is an attempt at making the NFL seem less of their dad's sport and something they can get involved with.

The NFL isn't going to lose any fans over what might be perceived as "thug culture" with flat brimmed hats but it might gain some fans. People are talking about it which is more than what happened with reebok's offering. They're looking to build a business model where people are tempted to buy new hats every year at least.

Wow, this was a very serious post about hats. Sorry about that.

For those of you who also post in The Ray Parlour (I know there are a few of you in here, too), we all know Nike (and all other brands) new soccer jerseys leak months in advance. Barcelona's kit for next year has been leaked since before Christmas.


I, for one, do not feel like waiting until April 3rd to see the changes :goonsay:

So I don't know if this is quite the right spot but I figured I'd drop this off here. The Jets are selling all of their Reebok merch for up to 60% off.

I'm sure other teams are as well but I know that the Pats and Bengals currently are not. :(

Most of the NFL teams aren't going to have redesigns. The only teams without New Era hats right now are the Panthers (we know why) and the Seahawks, who will be getting some slight adjustments.

e: Did a quick search and someone found the adjustment to the Seahawks' logo. They're gonna keep the modern look but add a touch of the grey from the old uniforms.

I agree with this whole-heartedly, as long as it also comes with the red helmet. That's the best part of their current throwbacks but they have those boring white pants.

Basically if they looked like this

It would be great to get some throwback vintage shirts. The ones made by Junk Food are pretty awful.
