Double All-Star Glory Fitted: New Era Drops Yankees 1960 Commemorative

New Era is taking us back to one of baseball’s most unique periods with this New York Yankees Navy 1960 All Star Game 59FIFTY fitted hat, now available at hat_heaven for just $26.99. This navy beauty with red, blue, and gold accents commemorates the second of two All-Star Games held in 1960, when MLB experimented with dual midsummer classics to boost the players’ pension fund. The crisp side patch celebrates a game that showcased some of the era’s biggest stars right at Yankee Stadium.

Here’s what makes 1960 so fascinating: this was smack in the middle of MLB’s four-year experiment (1959-1962) with holding two All-Star Games per season, and the second game drew 37,151 fans to the House That Ruth Built. Roger Maris was having his breakout campaign, batting .320 with 27 home runs at the break, setting the stage for his legendary 1961 home run chase. Meanwhile, the ageless Ted Williams was still dominating at 41 years old with a .341 average, proving why he remained an All-Star caliber player. The National League took this one 2-0 on Eddie Matthews’ two-run blast, part of just three total home runs hit across both 1960 All-Star Games combined.

For Yankees collectors, this fitted captures a pivotal moment when the franchise was transitioning from the DiMaggio era to the Maris-Mantle dynasty years. The navy colorway with vintage-inspired detailing makes this more than just team gear, it’s a conversation piece about one of baseball’s most interesting experiments. At under $30, this commemorative fitted offers serious value for anyone looking to add a unique piece of Yankees and All-Star Game history to their rotation.
