We have seen so many hip-hop, R&B superstar and pioneer wearing New Era Hats in any occasion. (can be translated into New Era Cap, New Era Caps, New Era Hat, New Era Hats, the following is similar.) We can also find that top brands around the world introduce new series of product in cooperation with New Era. This is not just a hat.
In1920, Ehrhardt Koch in New York Buffalo formally established a hat company E Koch Cap Co. that only 14 employees. In 1922, the company officially changed its name to New Era company. In 1932, That company designed their first baseball, then they got exclusive authorization to offer caps to the professional baseball team "Cleveland and Indians", which was the first team New Era offered caps. By 1940s, New Era had changed to specially supply hats for many professional baseball teams and immediately competed fiercely with such brands as Wilson, Spalding, Rawlings and so on. In the late forties, New Era mainly manufactured the hat with adjustable devices. In 1954, they combined Brooklyn style and re-designed the shape and color matching of hat, renaming this series 59Fifty. In 1965, DC Shoes Hats had provided team cap for 10 Major League Baseball teams. In 1969 New Era designed a unique "full closure" cap. Until 1974, New Era exclusively provided the team cap for 20 to 24 Major League Baseball teams. In early 1980s, it could not only supply hats to 23 major league baseball teams but also acquired the orders from schools, local enterprises, international baseball teams, golf teams and so on.
In 1986, New Era created a cap to Major League Baseball, named “MLB Diamond Collection”, and also sold them to the people. This activity yielded great success and it even became a popular trend to match everything with New Era hat at that time. In 1993, red bull hats completely defeated its main competitors and was granted special certificates for the manufacturers by the U.S. Major League Baseball.
Spike Lee, a famous America black director, personally asked New Era to design a entire red baseball cap with writing “New York Yankees” in white, what made New Era more famous. Whether adults or children, whether men or women, people from all kinds of business were wearing New Era hats in the street in America.
In 2006, New Era Cap Company moved its headquarters from Buffalo's suburbs to downtown area. In the same year in May New Era Cap Company opened the first flagship store in the SOHO district in New York City. In November of the same year the second flagshi In March 2007, New Era had strict requirements on design, and it is also brave to make innovation. To the aspect of cap material, company brought in the excellent performance of 100% polyester as a raw material based on the use of 100% pure wool. It marked a great change in their traditional process of producing hats after 20 years. 2007 New Era opened its third flagship store in London and in August other flagship stores were opened in Toronto, Queen Street, Atlanta, Berlin, Birmingham, in Japan, South Korea.
Beginning from 1996 when New Era caps emerged in the film by famous Negro director Spike Lee, New Era has been more than a product infusing into people’s life, and it rather represents a culture, a big popular trend.
