MAGEE DONEGAL WOOL BALLCAP HONORING THE UNIVERSITY OF NOTRE DAME

History: While Notre Dame was founded in 1842 by French missionaries, over the years its heavily Irish Catholic student body imbued the university with Celtic heritage. The name "Fighting Irish" was made official in 1927, and the shamrock — a quintessential Irish symbol — became a secondary emblem for the school, eventually making its way to the side of Notre Dame football helmets from 1959-62.

This cap is cut in Ebbets' signature style from Donegal fabric woven by Magee — a fifth-generation family business founded in 1866 in Donegal Town, on the northwest coast of Ireland, where the fabric was originally handwoven by local fishermen and farmers to stand up to the damp Atlantic weather. It's Irish wool, on an Irish-American institution, in a hat built to last.
