Major League Baseball honors Armed Forces Day annually over the course of one spring weekend with special ceremonies and on-field regalia. Additionally, they provide fans a limited-edition assortment of New Era hats, and the 2024 MLB Armed Forces cap this year raises the standard for MLB hat design.
SHOP: Fanatics has MLB Armed Forces Day hats.
Numerous MLB Armed Forces caps in various styles, such as fitted, adjustable, and low profile, are being distributed to every team. But no ball cap is more famous than a New York Yankees hat, and this new one is hard to ignore with its six gold stars, military forces side patch, and camouflage team emblem.
The black New Era 2024 Armed Forces Day 39THIRTY Flex Hat from the New York Yankees costs $37.99.
The collection, which includes headwear for each of the 30 MLB teams, is currently offered at MLB Shop and Fanatics. Every team’s headgear have the same pattern: a black cap with gold stars, a military squares camo-print team emblem, and an armed services patch with crossed lightning bolts and an American flag pattern.
The Toronto Blue Jays are one prominent exception, with a side patch honoring the Canadian flag rather than the Stars and Stripes.
There are various styles of Armed Forces Day hats to choose from, including the 39THIRTY Flex, 9FIFTY Snapback, bucket hat, 59FITTED Fitted, and 9TWENTY Adjustable. These are the ideal present for any MLB fan who want to support veterans or those serving in the armed services, or for any member of the armed forces in your life.
Compared to last year’s Armed Forces hat, which was Army green with a monochrome American Flag below the club emblem, the hats have a very different tone. However, depending on the team, you can still find a handful available on Fanatics if you prefer that design. On the other hand, the 2024 hat will be much more readily available.
