Post your game worn hats. Lots of use preferable. Most of my caps aren't used that well, but I'd like to see some that are. Though even if it isn't, I'd love to see it anyway.

Not CERTAIN of GU, but this one is an unusual bird.. 1964 (?) St Louis Browns throwback (1944 style) possibly used for the 20th anniversary celebration game of the St Louis vs St Louis World Series. This is a New Era and research does not show them EVER making this style as a Cooperstown Collection item:

Atlanta Braves Tim Hudson Hats. I purchased them at the Atlanta Braves Clubhouse and had him sign both of them at the Braves fanfare before the regular season. It's difficult to see but both are covered in sweat stains.

Just curious, how do you differentiate between sweat stains and dirt stains on a cap? Are the white marks always sweat stains? IDK, but do players sweat that much in places besides the brim?

The white marks on my Tim Hudson hats are sweat stains. Players do sweat that much and especially Tim Hudson who has no hair, so the hat is the only thing between it, and his head since he has no hair.

Mark McGwire-
The seller who I got this from also had
For sale at the same time a cleat that was game used with
95' inscribed on it. Im assuming the hat and cleat were a package.
So I'll assume this was from 95 as well.
Sweat soaked , also has red hairs imbedded in it

Sweet hat. The hair is always a classic to find. The Cards hat I picked up has re-brown hair in it also. Can you post a pic ot the tags. It would help with the time frame.

Game used hair from the player that wore the cap? It is definitely a possibility, but remember that caps usually pass through several hands along the way and get handled and tried on by others, so you never know. It is great though when the hair is embedded and not loose. Can't you just see an auction house advertising a game worn cap with embedded hair? :)
