Supreme New Era Box Logo Fitted
Supreme vs. Original
About the original
The New Era 59FIFTY is a structured six-panel fitted cap with a flat brim, a high crown, and an embroidered team logo on the front panel; it has been Major League Baseball's exclusive on-field cap since 1954, when it replaced the Detroit Tigers' original 59FIFTY pattern across the league. New Era Cap Company was founded in 1920 by Ehrhardt Koch in Buffalo, New York and has remained family-owned. The 59FIFTY crossed from the diamond into hip-hop fashion in the 1990s through East Coast rappers and has been a cultural fixture since. Supreme's long-running New Era collabs have produced dozens of colorways and seasonal materials, making the fitted cap a staple of the brand's accessory line.
About New Era
New Era is an American headwear manufacturer founded in 1920 by Ehrhardt Koch in Buffalo, New York, where it is still headquartered. The company introduced the 59FIFTY fitted cap in 1954 and became the exclusive on-field cap supplier for Major League Baseball in 1993, a relationship that now extends to the NFL, NBA, and international football leagues. The 59FIFTY crossed from dugouts into hip-hop wardrobes through the 1990s, and New Era now produces licensed caps for teams and franchises across dozens of sports and entertainment properties. Supreme has released New Era fitted caps nearly every season since the early 2000s.
