Now Available! The new 2010 home cap we just designed for the Mobile BayBears. The cap is done in a classic solid navy with light blue and cream highlights.
The embroidery incorporates a design concept that we developed while spending a day with New Era’s digitizers in Buffalo. Our goal was make the bear appear to be emerging from the darkness. We started by embroidering the majority of his head in the same color thread as the cap color. Then we broke the large navy area into smaller fur fields, giving the head dimension. Now when the glossy navy thread catches the light, it gives this simple logo a furry 3D look. One we’d never seen before.
The new look also pays homage to the heritage of baseball in The Azalea City, especially the Mobile Bears of the 1940s. If you haven’t made the trek, Mobile defines the romantic Old South. Antebellum mansions, azalea trees, gas lamps and horse-drawn carriages. The new home cap is just part of our 2-year creative overhaul of the BayBears franchise. We’re producing a new Mobile-themed fan experience that includes ballpark mint juleps to rocking chairs. Gunna be classic!

Pirate Charlie is our first official on-field cap offering. We’ve designed around 100 official on-field caps for Major and Minor League Baseball teams. This is just one that we think is awesome.
The Charleston Charlies (West Virginia) was the Pittisburg Pirates AAA franchise from 1971 to 1976.
Many Charleston residents will fondly remember the logo of the Charlies – a smiling baseball wearing a derby hat while smoking a cigar. And check this out: The logo appeared on the front page of the Charleston Gazette displaying a smile if the Charlies won, or a frown if the Charlies lost!
This mash-up concept cap pays tribute to the Charlies and their 1970s’ Pirates affiliation.

ABOUT THE SYRACUSE CHIEFS
The Syracuse Chiefs displayed a indian chiefs logo beginning in 1961. In 1997 the team changed its name to ‘SkyChiefs’ due to native american sensitivity. Team loyalists called the ‘SkyChiefs’ name blasphemy, and demanded the club return to the former name. In 2007 we dreamed up a new look for the Chiefs moniker. New identity honors the railroads that carried goods manufactured in Syracuse to points throughout America.
