2013 stars and stripes hats
Yuck, looks like something sold at a gas station on a side road that has been sitting there for a good 4-5 years on the rack.
Not sure why every year they have to make these more ridiculous every season.
I still like the 2009 all red hats the best. 2010 was nasty with the ice cream man style white hats. 2010 was ok with the white front panel, 2011 triggered the camo era and looks like it is continuing.
I assume colored camo that is close to team colors will start to come in the coming years

Re: 2013 stars and stripes hats
I definatly agree I loved the 2009 Stars and Stripes hats. I also liked last years Memorial Day hats. I got a game used Tommy Hanson one and I really love it the Camo in the A is a nice suttle change. The 2013 Stars and Stripe hats are horrible, the idea just doesn't work.

I am not a fan of the camo design, however I will still need to buy one for my collection.

Re: 2013 stars and stripes hats
Supposedly there will also caps that will be similar to the previous years. Does anyone find it ironic that the patriotic caps are made in China as opposed to made in the USA like the normal on-field caps?

As I just posted on FaceBook about these...
'My friends know I'm a Veteran and about as Patriotic as they come, but these hats are disgusting...' (excuse me, I just threw up in my mouth)

Re: 2013 stars and stripes hats
I find it more disturbing when these patriotic themed hats are made in another country.

Just as an FYI... that is MARPAT, the Marine Corps Camo design.

Re: 2013 stars and stripes hats
I used to take notice when a USA themed item was made outside of the country. But really it has almsot become America to shop around for the lowest price and hone in on it.
I work for a USA made national commodity product and know for certain that the forgein manufacturers get the bulk of the business in the country because it is a price driven home good, which is a cultural value that would be hard to change the masses on, soley based on price.
Howevr, I don't really feel less america by driving an Audi, even though that is not the lowest cost option available.
