The Blue Jays are going retro this weekend with white-panel throwback hats.
According to SportsLogos.net, all 30 MLB teams will wear retro-style caps during games from July 25-27 in honour of this year’s Hall of Fame induction weekend — the first time every club has worn a specially designed throwback cap for the occasion.
The New Era-designed caps feature retro or retro-inspired logos, a vintage look and feel, and a Hall of Fame patch stitched on the right side, with each team having input on the design.
“It’s our way to work with baseball to celebrate the Hall of Fame,” Tim Shanahan, New Era’s senior director of licensed products, said in a statement. “We started off our design process by pitching just what every team’s first fitted New Era cap looked like. So the early ’90s were our overall starting point.”
The Blue Jays’ cap features a white front panel and blue crown, showcasing the original primary logo that debuted in 1977 and was last worn in 1996.
While teams will switch up their headwear for the weekend, jerseys will remain the standard designs.
The 2025 Baseball Hall of Fame ceremony is set to take place on July 27 in Cooperstown. Dick Allen, Dave Parker, CC Sabathia, Ichiro Suzuki and Billy Wagner are this year’s inductees.
