The baseball cap has certainly risen from its once stagnant status to where it is a leader in the fashion markets of today! In former days, it was odd to find one literally chasing a cherished baseball cap down the street after a large gust of wind had forced it to take flight.Today the baseball cap has an importance. It's a necessary part of one's wardrobe, not merely an addition to it!!

One of what i consider the most advanced manufacturers of finely crafted baseball caps is the Blue Marlin Corp!!

These gifted artists offer their beautiful renditions of vintage baseball caps that were once a part of the life of the uniformed men in the minor leagues of Japan, USA, and Hawaii,as well as some of the major league umpire caps!!Take a look at these vintage wool caps with wonderful embroidered lettering and numerals! You'll find that their vast collection includes the Brooklyn Atlantics, The Jersey City Giants, the Los Angeles Angels, the Hollywood Stars, the NY Black Yankees, the Brooklyn Excelsiors, the Rural Red Socks!

FUBU hails from NYC as do I. These fabulous designs were born out of the inability of its creators to find clothing and accessories that complement their urban lifestyle! FUBU stands for "for us by us" and the company was formed from the very first moment that the partners tied a skullcap together in 1992! This was only the beginning ! Take a look at this fabulous site at fubu.com.

If science fiction and alien nations is your forte, then be sure to take a peak at the Alien Workshop designs which feature a multi-positioned alien with huge eyes! Visit their planet at zacattac.com.

Lucky Labrador is a name synonymous with comradeship and fine designs. These hail by way of the Lucky Labrador Brew Pub In Portland, Oregon. You'll find either a black labrador or yellow labrador emblem on these great looking baseball caps. On the back is written Lucky Lab Brewing! See for yourself at luckylab.com.

Many of us have always been intrigued by the caps worn by the umpires not to mention those little known caps worn by the minor leagues in Japan, Hawaii,and Russia!!! Here, you can pick up one of Japan's Hanshin Tiger Minor League caps or perhaps the Soviet Wings cap will beckon you!!
