History: The 1968 Arkansas Razorbacks baseball team, referred to as the Omahogs, Diamond Hogs, and even the Porkers, were led by Head Coach Wayne Robbins. Robbins coached for just 4 seasons from 1966 - 1969 with modest success. Butch Hopkins was the pitching ace and Mike Pryor was one of the top batters during the '68 campaign. Things started to change for the better after his departure and the Hogs made their first appearance in the NCAA Tournament ever in 1973. As of 2018, they have appeared in the tournament 29 times reaching the College World Series 8 times. The Arkansas Razorbacks are currently members of the South Eastern Conference Western Division and play their home games in Baum-Walker Stadium at George Cole Field, Fayetteville, Arkansas.

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.
