History: The former Sacramento Solons moved to Aloha State for the 1961 season. They adopted bright green and gold uniforms, pre-dating their parent club, the Kansas City Athletics by two years. (One wonders whether A’s owner Charlie Finley got the idea for the gold vests from his PCL affiliate). The gold cap was worn at home, and a kelly green one was used on the road.

Our caps faithfully replicate historic professional baseball caps from 1900 to 1970 and fit differently than modern caps. Try wrapping a piece of string around your head where a cap would naturally fit and then measure the string to find your size.

Measuring Guide
We offer three kinds of ballcap visors:
Pre-1940 ballcaps were made with soft visors so players could fold them up and put them in their back pockets. Later visors were done in standard (stiff visor) or short (also a soft visor). Check the product details to see which type of visor each cap has.
