sportsfan0518 Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 A friend of mine who works at a sports merchandise store emailed me this image of the 2014 Stars and Stripes hats for the 4th of July. He gave me permission to post the image here, so I figured this would be a great place to share it.The hat has a star shaped American flag in the center with the cap logo in front of it. I'm not sure how I feel about this yet since I am so used to the American flag and the team logo combining with one another, but this will probably grow on me once I see a real version of it. I am curious to see if teams will settle for red or blue brims, but we will find that out later. What do you guys think of it?By the way, my friend told me that Toronto has a red star in front of their logo instead of an American flag. Just in case anyone was wondering.

Clintau24 Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 These are about as tame and, well, smart, as we've seen in a while. Yes, the logo on star may be a bit much, but it beats everything else in my opinion. "I believe in Auburn and love it!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkMasterGeneral Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 Those images display the hats for teams whose team colors are red and navy already.I will reserve judgement once a few of the non-navy/red teams 4th of July hats are unveiled.

Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.

Just in case anyone was wondering.Damn Commies. All in all, these are much better than the hats of the past, but I really wish they'd stop doing the whole stars and stripes thing. I'd be down for guest23's proposal. I've got a dribbble, check it out if you like my stuff; alternatively, if you hate my stuff, send it to your enemies to punish their insolence!

FGM13 Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Why should Toronto wear something special on the 4th of July? Wear the reds on Canada Day and wear the normal unis for Independence Day. GO OILERS-GO BLUE JAYS-GO ESKIMOS-GO COLTS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never squander a merchandising opportunity especially as it relates to nationalism...uh I mean patriotism.I'd even be ok with a side patch on the hat but the need to force flag imagery or camo into a teams identity should be a federal offense.
