The long wait is almost over. (Hey, at least they'll come out before Detox.)
NikeTalk's official New Era 59 Fifty fitted caps are finally here, and will be available exclusively at ecapcity.com beginning at midnight EST on February 12th.
Only 144 of these caps have been produced and they'll be sold on a first come, first served basis for $36 each, which, these days, is cheaper than just about anything other than Nets tickets.
With this cap, our goal was to apply the same commitment to quality, authenticity, and respect that differentiates the NikeTalk community from its many imitators.
Crafted from New Era's premium black cotton twill, the NikeTalk fitted caps proudly bear the NT logo in bold, heavy duty embroidery up front with the DO YOU KNOW? tagline holding down the back. Each cap comes complete with a special first run inaugural patch commemorating over a decade of excellence, while the classic kelly green underbrim adds the perfect finishing touch.
But you don't have to take my word for it. Have a look at the finished product and tell us what you think:
And of course, since this is NikeTalk, the proceeds from these caps will go to charity. (We welcome your charity suggestions, so feel free to let us know where you'd most like to see the profits sent - aside from your bank account.)
If you enjoy these caps, please join me in thanking Rajah, who's designed all of our recent NKETLK apparel offerings, for designing the product and making all of the arrangements with our friends at ecapcity.com.
Without Rajah, your long-awaited wish to see an authentic NikeTalk New Era fitted would not have been fulfilled. I hope the response will justify all of the hard work and sacrifice he and the Cap City gang have poured into this project.
