The newly released MLB Fourth of July cap collection celebrates America's Independence Day. Featuring two styles -- an all blue and blue and red design -- the baseball accessories are each adorned with a faded American flag motif and boast a hand-embroidered MLB logo and team insignia.
These MLB Fourth of July caps are not the baseball association's first attempt at Memorial Day marketing and follow its Texas Ranger cap range. While its past designs featured more unexpected themes, this year's hats are more simplistic and traditional in their look.
Blending patriotic flag motifs with quality craftsmanship, these sporty hats are easily incorporated into any wardrobe and stand out thanks to subtle details like their two-toned color options and delicate embroideries.
