68&Brothers x Cooperstown BallCap Co. 'NY' Short Brim Fitted Caps
Japan's 68&Brothers continue their Cooperstown Ball Cap Co. connection with the release of three, new, short-brim fitted caps paying homage to vintage New York Yankees and Giants/Mets baseball teams. The caps are made by the one and only Cooperstown Ball Cap Co. in fine, wool flannel and leather sweatbands. This could possibly be the last of these very rare pieces ever since Cooperstown BallCaps sadly discontinued operations early this year. Email 68&Brothers about shipping to the US or if you happen to be in Tokyo, check their spot out in the Shibuya Ward.
