phutmasterflex Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 I got mine from Hat Club.When I called the Brewers team store, they said they'd only be available at their store, so that's false information they gave me. That led to my assumption that it would only be sold there at limited quantitiesThat's what I thought as well. I was pretty shocked to see it there and only picked it up because I figured it'd be the only chance I'd have to get it. I didnt think I was going to have the time, but now that I do, I'm going to try to go to the Spring Training game where they wear them.I guess it's a lesson I'll have to learn and eat the fact that I overpaid for the cap.

sportstar1212 Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 Better to overpay than to not get one at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 Initial response was pretty strong, from what I understand. Nor surprising that they'd want to expand the sale. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phutmasterflex Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 Better to overpay than to not get one at all.That is true. And I would have been fine with the price I paid ($57 total after shipping) if it wasn't mass produced. Oh well, gotta live with it Go A's!

Capattack Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 Are the Brewers now going to be wearing that hat during the season?? I know it was for a spring game or two, but I gotta admit, its REALLY nice looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Did they take out the shoulder piping?Yes, they did. They also changed the "B". Shame on both counts. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jungle Jim Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Anyone else notice that the Cardinals green hat is Velcro in the back? Sorry I couldn't find a picture. Makes since, since those are cheaper for a one game thing.I saw that too. Tacky, tacky, tacky...Multiple teams had velcro.Yep, the Reds had velcro this year and last. Not sure about the years prior.

Sodboy13 Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Did they take out the shoulder piping?Yes, they did. They also changed the "B".Shame on both counts.If the graphic on MLB Shop is accurate (and I certainly hope it isn't), they got rid of the shoulder piping, dumped the front number, and used their standard Times New Roman Bold Outline Dropshadow font for the names and numbers. So they did just about everything to screw the design up short of replacing the sleeve patch with their primary logo.

FiddySicks Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Just bought my ticket for the game on Friday vs the Cubs at Maryvale Park. Should be interesting to see them in action.

So they did just about everything to screw the design up short of replacing the sleeve patch with their primary logo.I wouldn't necessarily say that they dumped the font, but I wouldn't be surprised. Since it isn't a font MLB regularly uses, they may not have the graphic for it and used this as a placeholder. MLBShop has had problems with this sort of thing in the past, but it's been a while.But since MLB wants to use their copyright-owned fonts as much as possible, I wouldn't be surprised if they decided to use their own Brewers font instead. I guess we'll find out Friday. Go Astros!Go Texans!Go Rockets!Go Javelinas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sodboy13 Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 Photos from the Brewers today show the jersey still has the piping, and also keeps the distinct numeral font and front numbers. As you were.
